"When Hope Is Hard To Find"

Rev. Carlton E. Smith, Speaker
And I'll bring you hope / when hope is hard to find / and I'll bring a song of love / and a rose in the wintertime. So goes the chorus of one of our better-known contemporary UU hymns. If there's ever been a time in recent history when despair seems the order of the day, this is it. Current realities have shattered our belief that we were moving beyond the selfishness, greed, fear, cruelty and hatred of our past. How do we plant gardens in the midst of the shards? What does it mean to trust ourselves and others in the midst of so much brokenness? Where do we turn to reassemble all the scattered pieces of our dreams? On this Share the Love Sunday, we will delve into what it means to be the "Love People" in and out of our yellow shirts, and not just one day or month out of the year, but in every waking moment.

Since 2013, Rev. Carlton E. Smith has served as a member of the Southern Region team for the Congregational Life Staff of Our Unitarian Universalist Association. An ordained UU minister since 1995, he has served as parish minister at congregations in Metro New York, Oakland, California, Greater Boston and Northern Virginia. He is based in Holly Springs, and attends the congregation of his birth, Asbury United Methodist Church, when he is not on the road.
