Feelin’ the Spirit
A look at the power of Spirit in Unitarian Universalism. What is it? How does it work? What does it mean in our “rational” faith?
Rev. Jen Simon (they/she) is the assistant minister at Jefferson Unitarian Church in Golden, CO, as well as cofounder of the Mountain Top BIPOC UU community. Jen’s calling is to provide space for BIPOC UUs and their families to live into the fullness of their spiritual growth and expression, as well as to provide resources to our UU communities as they do the work of dismantling white supremacy within and without. Jen lives with her partner Damien, son Gabe, 2 dogs, 2 cats, and a snail. She spends her free time happily trying to keep up with them (except the snail).

I’m a UU member in the southwest. Please share ideas for ways to get resources to where they can be accessed quickly. We send our love, as well.
