Please welcome Michael Eselun back to UUFRC for this service, while Rev. Gretchen is away for the Thanksgiving weekend.  Michael Eselun serves as the chaplain for the Simms-Mann/UCLA Center for Integrative Oncology.  The seed was planted for his chaplaincy doing volunteer hospice work during the peak of the AIDS crisis. He speaks from the place where all of us find ourselves at one time or another– in the place of the outsider, in the margins…misunderstood, isolated, abandoned, perhaps doubting long held beliefs, and now holding more questions than answers.  Worship Associate: Jorie Schulz
