Unitarian author, abolitionist and women’s suffragist Julia Ward Howe first proposed Mother’s Day back in 1870 with the Mother’s Day proclamation which called on us all to “the great and general interests of peace.” In her spirit we will not only celebrate the work of parents of all genders, but also ask; what is the work for peace we are called to in this divisive time?

This service is with the Unitarian Universalist Church of Cortland. Visit them at Home – Unitarian Universalist Church of Cortland NY (uucortland.org).
