I forgive you. Forgive me. I love you. Thank you. Goodbye.
Promise Breakers (Online Only)
/by Suzette TomWhen we make promises, there is always the potential to break them. Covenants, as formal act of promise-making, anticipate this possibility. Gather with us online for a service of navigating the road to repair when we break our promises.
The UU Trauma Response Ministry Team will join us again after the service. Please stay if you would like a guided small group discussion on managing grief and trauma from the past few months or more generally. All are welcome.
NOTE: This Sunday we will be streaming Sunday worship via ZOOM only (click on the link below) and Facebook.

After The Celebration Where Do We Go From Here?
/by Suzette TomUnitarian Universalists in many ways have been on the cutting edge of progress and inclusion within our Association’s life for the past sixty years. We had Bill Sinkford before our nation had Barack Obama. We had Peter Morales before most organizations understood the demographics of the USA. We now have an Afro-Latinx president and yet our overall numbers still need to grow in order for us to be the spiritual community that welcomes everyone. Let’s talk about becoming the Beloved Community. Let’s figure out a few new ways to be more open and affirming of everyone. Let’s be all we can be! Join us for a service about loving everyone and offering a seat at the table for all of the world’s people.

Feelin’ the Spirit
/by Suzette TomA 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).
