Welcome! I’m Phillip Lund, a Unitarian Universalist minister and Director of Faith Development and Congregational Growth for the Prairie Star District of the Unitarian Universalist Association (whew!). What does that mean? It has something to do with helping folks (children, youth, and adults) “feel at home in the universe” within the Unitarian Universalist tradition. How does one do that? That’s what this blog is supposed to help me figure out. So much for my professional life. My personal life includes a spouse, Julia, and a son, Henry David. We all love living in St. Paul, Minnesota. With our cat Chloë, too.
