Скачать или смотреть Life, Death, and Everything In Between: Selected Poems of Mary Oliver -LCUUF 20241020

Presenter: Rev. D’Vorah Kelley, Service Associate: Priscilla Taylor.
Mary Oliver was a prolific award-winning poet before her death in 2019. Her poems often touch on spiritual topics like God and prayer, even though she rarely talked much about churches, official beliefs, or other things people often associate with religion. She became an unconventional spiritual teacher for many people because she wrote a lot about God, what might come after death, and the questions all humans face about why we are here. “We all wonder about God,” Mary said. “Who is God? What’s going to happen when we die?”

For many of us long time Unitarian Universalists, Mary Oliver is the unofficial Poet Laureate of Unitarian Universalism. Today’s service will offer seven of her poems that explore the theme of “Life, Death, and Everything In Between”. There will be a Time For Reflection as part of this service.
