We will spend some time uplifting stories about trans people from human history. We may enjoy some speculative history together about what indigenous trans people were doing in their communities before colonialism brought fear of anything outside of the binary (engaging with our imagination!). We will read names of trans people who have passed and do some grieving practices together.

"Do Not Leave Your Cares at the Door" is one of our beliefs in our pluralistic faith community. This year has been really traumatic and we know the coming years will continue to be so. Drawing on the research of trauma informed care, we will explore tools for sitting in discomfort during ongoing scary times. All of who you are, even the scared parts, are welcome here. 

Join us for a Service Sunday. We'll gather in Adams Hall to pack safe birth kits for Global Health Services to distribute around the world. Join us for this fun and lifesaving activity that all ages can participate in!

Coming out requires compassion for ourselves and others. Whether you’re coming out as a GLBTQ person or as an ally, come celebrate the joy of living authentic lives.

One way we cultivate compassion, our theme for October, is building our empathy skills. At this multigen Service, through interaction and dialogue we will imagine what it means to walk in the shoes of another.

Our second annual Daytimers lead Service is all about what it means to belong to community and ways we show up for each other “for the long haul.”

At the August 17 Service, congregants submitted questions that they have been pondering about life, UU faith, and “what happens next.” In this Service, using spiritual tools from the Jewish New Year, we will contemplate the questions and set our intentions for the year together.
