When We Err

When Coach Ted Lasso (a fictional coach on TV) sees his players need to move on from a mistake, he reminds them to “Be a goldfish.” It’s his reminder that goldfish quickly let go of what has come before. How do we move on from our mistakes? When do we need to apologize or make amends? At this service with Rev. Sue Browning we’ll consider practices from the world’s religions, including Judaism, which help us work through our mistakes with integrity. UUFE’s choir will sing.
