In the first Sunday Service of 2024 we will celebrate our Universalist heritage of love for all people, including ourselves. At this multigen service we will create intentions of love for our community and let go of what no longer serves us.
When the concentration camps were cleared after WWII ended, an inscription was found on a wall that includes the line “I believe in the sun even when it isn’t shining.” On this Sunday before the inauguration of an administration at our multicongregation Service at 1st UU Detroit, we will lean into believing in the seeds of joy, hope, and love even when we can’t see them.
For over a century labor has been a driving force in anchoring human rights in our law and our lives. As labor unions continue to be under attack, how can we reshape our vision of rights and work in a way that encompasses all of what we do with our life force and allows us to build the power we need to make systemic change?
