KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – The service at the Unitarian Universalist Community of Lake County (UUCLC) for Sunday, July 17, is entitled, “The Healing Power of Laughter.”

The service begins at 10 a.m. at the Kelseyville Senior Center, 5245 Third St. in Kelseyville.

Guests are always welcome to attend to learn more about the liberal religious traditions of Unitarian Universalism.

Speaker Carrie Knowles-Hance will look at how humor, like art, grapples with life’s great mysteries: sex, death and spirit.

Knowles-Hance says, “Laughter returns us to balance. Grownups, however, laugh less than one 20th the number of times that kids laugh.”

She intends to reverse that trend in this service.

Knowles-Hance helped found UUCLC a decade ago. The UUCLC was crucial to her following her call to ministry.

After a career as psychologist and attorney, she graduated last December from Starr King Seminary in Berkeley with the M. Div degree.

She is now at the midpoint of her internship serving veterans at the San Francisco Presidio, and working with the Berkeley Fellowship of Unitarian Universalists. She is a former resident of Lake County.
