Harnessing Imagination Sunday, January 10, 2021 — 10:00 am CENTERING THOUGHT — My favorite Baldwin quote is, “The interior life is the real life… The intangible dreams of a person may have a tangible effect on the world.” It’s basically saying, what one can imagine, internally, what one can think about when nobody knows, when nobody’s around, one’s secrets, could shift human life. What an amazing thing. — Jason Reynolds, Library of Congress’s 2020-2021 National Ambassador for Young People’s Literature GATHERING MUSIC Just my Imagination The Cranberries Imagination Tamia Your Imagination Brian Wilson WELCOME & ANNOUNCEMENTS Jim Johnston, UUCC Board of Trustees CALL TO WORSHIP “Invocation”, by Kristin Grassel Schmidt SOUNDING THE BELL The Rev.
