We see the world through our own eyes \u2013 and sometimes we assume that\u2019s just \u201cthe way it is\u201d for everyone. But when we engage with our neighbors, we start to realize how much our own limited perspectives never showed us. There are so many shades and colors of what it means to be \u201cus\u201d \u2013 to live in Chester County, or to be a Unitarian Universalist \u2013 beyond our own experiences. This Winter, we\u2019ll bring members of the community outside WellSprings\u2019 doors to help open that conversation, and get to know more of the \u201cpeople in our neighborhood.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
