Kind Words

“Sara brings passion, skill and a collegial spirit to exploring new generational and multicultural expressions of Unitarian Universalism.” Rev. Roger Bertschausen


“The staff at FUS Madison have found Sara a joy to work with; she has become a valued resource and her cheerful and positive demeanor has helped to make our time together as a staff brighter and more productive.” Rev. Kelly Crocker, Minister for Congregational Life, First Unitarian Society


“Sara has an incredibly collaborative eye, with a willingness to delegate power to many. My favorite example of this is her wedding. I had the joy of serving as a bridesmaid, and she had very clear expectations of the ritual and familial participation, and left many of the details up to us with trust and affection. Collectively, we considered colors, music, food, and wardrobe. What resulted was an event that was warm and deep and full of rich blessing, and felt like a true community celebration of love.” – Mylo Way


Her meditations and sermons so often touched my heart and challenged my thinking. – Deborah Bennet-Leet, White Bear UU member

“Sara carries an energy around her that is relaxing while helping increase productivity. Although she can be soft spoken, she does a good job of being heard. While maintaining  her own opinions, she is able to understand  others and help  them get their point across if they’re struggling to find the right words. I think that’s a useful skill because it means that she has the ability to look at things objectively and consider problems and solutions from a different perspective. This also helps in her ability to communicate with others on a spiritual level.” Zaivy Luke-Aleman Youth, Metro New York District’s Youth-Adult Council
