Traditionally, the Sunday after Christmas is our last time to sing Christmas music for the year. This year we will begin the service with Christmas music, honor the eighth day of Hanukkah, and end with turning toward 2017 and our resolutions for the year to come. This year our resolutions may go far beyond starting an exercise program: as UUs we must strengthen our resolution for responding with faith and courage to what is happening in our country. Where do we find that inner resolve, and how do we stay awake and clear in our resolutions?
