Rev. Bob MacDonald comes from upstate New York. He holds degrees from West Virginia Wesleyan College and Yale Divinity School. Here is part of his personal creed:
“The best part of being a minister is learning about the journey and religious searches and discoveries of those in the congregation. I love to do Q&As with people on differing paths because I am still searching. I love that UU strives to practice respect for people of all persuasions, religious, lifestyle, ethnicities, no exceptions. Thinking in matters of faith is pretty important. And justice in all the communities we belong to just as important.”
Contact Bob at BobMac1214@aol.com or 772-301-2856 if there is a health concern, a spiritual issue, or just a desire to communicate. We need more communication.
