Join us for a service led by UUFE member Joyce Dowling to learn about the Worthy Now prison ministry network, which is a liberal religious network for people on both sides of the prison walls. The program declares that all persons are worthy of love, respect, and support – not at some future time when we are better people – but as we are right now.
