Boundary or Horizon?

Boundary or Horizon?
Unitarian Universalist Community of the Mountains
May 11, 2025
Rev. Kevin Tarsa
Cheryl Morris & Elizabeth Rose, Worship Associates

Barry Lopez writes that “the effort of the imagination is to turn the boundary into a horizon…The boundary says, Here and no further.  The horizon says, Welcome.”  What if we look beyond the perceived limits of our lives, our country, our world?  This Mother’s Day, join us as we step boldly into the future, leaving traces of our earthly lives for those who come after us, and go where no one has gone before.  Who knows what we might imagine?
