Join us as Deirdre (Dee) Church helps us explore and grow our own capacity for supporting trans people through direct action. Using her expertise as a clinical therapist, Dee will discuss the pendulum of hyper-activism and burnout that so many activists face, how to slow down our nervous systems to make intentional actions, and how to soften emotional barriers that stop us from embodying our justice-seeking principles.
This Sunday is an ACTION SUNDAY! We will meet in Adams Hall with Michele from Oakland County Foster Closet to assemble birthday kits for kids in foster care. And to learn more about the work of the foster closet.
Earth Day, it could be argued, is our most sacred holiday. We UUs work hard to live in reverence with the earth whenever possible. What would it look like to move from the Earth as an abstract idea to a tactile experience of earth, quite literally dirt? In this service we will experience a new UU ritual, Dirt Communion. Please bring a little bit of the soil where you find your peace, find your power, find your joy.
