A WOW Moment: Not too far away, down the road a bit, doubles back...

".. I will suggest as a dimension of spiritual development is wonder: an increasing amazement about the life around us. The life of which we are a part. It's awesome man. The experience of birth often stirs this in us. Wow. As we grow spiritually, maybe we say "wow" more often, not mindlessly, but reverently. We are awed by life's power and beauty. And this awe and wonder give rise to gratitude."

and ...

"What is your way, your truth your life? What is your passion? What is your ministry? Is it music, is it children, is it learning about the Bible, as a group of our members has undertaken together? Is it developing a model of liberal religious leadership for the new century? The new millennium? A new Unitarian Universalist congregation in Upper Montgomery County has recently been born. The name they have chosen is Sugarloaf UU Congregation. What passion went into the development and birth of that new religious community! What is your passion? What is your ministry?"

Read Rev. Alida M. DeCoster's Sermon

Wow, who knew? A number of thoughts come to mind on a number of levels, but one thought that comes to mind after reading the sermon is: Wow we're going to be 10 years old!!
