Sensible Shoes

Only in Asheville and only at a UU Church (Except, maybe Jubilee) will you find so many women under 50 wearing sensible shoes. It’s wonderful to see. People here “do church” for the reason of hearing a message that may help them on their personal journey. There is no judgment, no dress code.

Today we had a guest speaker who teaches meditation and Buddhism as a philosophy, not necessarily a “religion.” It’s incredible to have 200 people being silent and meditating together. The energy that surrounds such an event is awe inspiring and simultaneously energizing and peaceful.
