Sunday Worship: Trusting Our Inherent Worth
Sunday Worship: Trusting Our Inherent Worth
DMRE Jessica Ten-Have Place, MDiv, preaching; Jef Travis, worship associate. In the face of a society that tells us people are worth more or less than others depending on our race, gender, citizenship status, or the work we can do, it's a spiritual practice to celebrate the inherent worth of each and every person. All ages are invited to join us for this interactive, multi-generational service celebrating our inherent worth, beauty, and joy. Join us in-person or online.

Sunday Worship: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Stewardship Sunday
Sunday Worship: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Stewardship Sunday
The Rev. Jeremiah Lal Shahbaz Kalendae, preaching; Chela Metzger, worship associate. Ministering to build just and sustainable communities that counter-oppressions is at the heart of Unitarian Universalism. Our liberal faith is put into practice through our intersectional anti-racism efforts, advocacy for LGBTIAQ+ people, disability activism, reproductive justice commitments, and in many other ways we strive to dismantle systems of oppression. The white supremacist able-bodied cis-heteropatriarchy in government, the media, the corporate world, and elsewhere is assaulting our society's commitments to diversity, equity, and inclusion and threatening those involved in this liberatory work. Come join the resistance this Sunday morning as we launch our annual Stewardship Campaign to support the life of our congregation! Join us in-person or online.

Sunday Worship: Deep Down in My Heart
Sunday Worship: Deep Down in My Heart
The Rev. Dr. Kikanza Nuri-Robins, preaching; Cassie Winters, worship associate. "I've got the Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy down in my heart!" is the opening line of a song many of us learned in childhood. Is there joy in your heart today? What is deep down in there? There are many spiritual practices that help to explore, excavate, nourish the deep recesses of your being. This morning we will talk about some of them. Perhaps you will leave with something new to try. Join us in-person or online.
