Presented by Rev. Elizabeth Greene
Taking her cue from Proverbs in the Hebrew Scriptures, Rev. Greene will reflect on how important it is to laugh, to share humor, to have as merry a heart as possible.
While laughter is not generally considered a “religious” subject, Rev. Greene will illustrate—with laugh-producing examples—how humor brings us to better places in our spiritual lives.
Unitarian Universalism honors the differing paths we each travel. Our congregations are places where we celebrate, support, and challenge one another as we continue on our spiritual journeys. Unitarian Universalists covenant to affirm and promote the inherent worth and dignity of every person; justice, equality and compassion in human relations; and acceptance of one another.
Please join us Sunday at the Vendor Blender and Event Center, 588 Addison Avenue West in Twin Falls at 10:30 AM. The Vendor Blender is located near the old hospital near the intersection of Martin St. and Addison Avenue West. Newcomers of all religious paths or none at all are always welcome. We are handicapped accessible. Child care is usually available. Parking is available in the parking lot to the north side of the building.
We are pleased to have Rev. Sara LaWall be our visiting minister this Sunday. Rev. Sara LaWall has served as the minister for the Boise Unitarian Universalist Fellowship since being called by the congregation in 2015. She is an alumna of Meadville-Lombard Theological School, one of our Unitarian Universalist seminaries, and also holds a Masters in Education from Pepperdine University. Prior to relocating to Boise, Sara served as the Director of Religious Education at Neighborhood Church in Pasadena, CA for ten years. She has a wonderful family which includes husband Michael, whom she’s known since she was fourteen, and two beautiful sons, William and Gavin. She and her husband have traveled extensively to some of the world’s spiritual “hot spots” including Angkor Wat, Cambodia and Machu Picchu. In her “free” time, Sara fancies herself a circus performer and enjoys bouldering, yoga and the flying trapeze. You can find her on the web at
Rev. Greene will be speaking about how important it is for a religious faith to embrace all people, why we need and have a responsibility to help create community for all, and how working for justice is often a result of a commitment to the proposition that all people have some of the Holy within them.
Sunday, we will have a special guest speaker, 11-year old Kennedy Blair. Kennedy will present an encore presentation of her wonderful TEDx Twin Falls talk titled: “A Playground Perspective: Embracing Sexual and Gender Diversity.” Need a little shot of hope? When you see an 11-year old talk like this, you can’t help but have some hope. The world is not doomed, because young people like Kennedy – and their supportive families, allies and friends – are going to change it.

Our message this Sunday is “Common Ground”. We will explore how our faith and other faiths are different yet similar in both beliefs and actions. We will discover we may have more in common with other faiths than differences. After all, all faiths preach love, forgiveness and hope. Please visit us Sunday to explore this topic.
