What Do You Yearn For?
The Universalist Unitarian Church asked its members at services over the weekend and responses varied from mundane to inspirational.
On its Facebook page, the Universalist Unitarian Church of Joliet posted that they asked members to write down something they are yearning for. The responses varied from a hope for a new job: to be a firefighter for example, to a yearning to end human suffering and poverty.
