9:15 a.m. Discussion Group Topic: "Storm Evacuations versus Safe Shelters"
10:30 Service: —Rev. Kathy Tew Rickey, “The Power of Story: Do Our Narratives Need Changing?"    In many ways, our personal narrative - the story of who we are and what we believe - is shaped by our family of origin and by our early experiences in life. These influences can profoundly affect how we see ourselves and how we view the world. How then would we rewrite those narratives in a way that allows our most authentic selves to shine?
