This Sunday UUCF will join other area congregations to celebrate Pride in Detroit! We will all gather for a celebratory Sunday Service and then go march in the Detroit Pride parade. 

Join the Social Justice Committee in Adams Hall for Service Sunday. We'll kick off Pride Month by preparing seed packets and bracelet kits to share at events throughout June. As always, there will be jobs for all ages and lots of good conversation.

During today’s service, we’ll gather in discussion groups to explore the theme of transitions. Through guided conversation, we’ll consider how we respond to change, reflect on our own experiences, and gain insight from the diverse ways others navigate transition.

Our annual Service of the Living Tradition honors members and leaders. Together we'll share the story of this past year and celebrate UUCF's thriving community. 

Using teachings from Bowen Family Systems theory, we will explore ways we can become aware of how we are interconnected with our families, the roles we play in our families, and how it impacts our relationships with others. 

Our Annual Flower Ceremony helps us reconnect to our Unitarian roots and reminds us of the beauty of our diverse community. Please bring flowers to the Sunday Service which will then be part of the ceremony. This multigen Service celebrates all that we are in community. 

Embracing Love That Transcends Tolerance is a heartfelt and courageous talk that challenges audiences to move beyond passive acceptance and into visible, active love. Through personal story, spiritual reflection, and practical insight, Deedee Lloyd invites communities to embrace compassion, justice, and solidarity with transgender people and their families. This speech calls listeners to ask not merely what they believe, but what love requires of them now.

Our annual Earth Day Service connects us with the earth and those with whom we share the planet. Come listen to Geno Gresham, a representative of Greening of Detroit, share about the work they do to "enhance the quality of life for Detroiters by planting trees, repurposing the land to create beautiful and productive green spaces and helping communities rebuild their neighborhoods one lot at a time." 

So much of our rhetoric around the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth revolves around “correct belief” or orthodoxy, but perhaps we should be talking about orthopraxy, or “correct praxis.” How we live out the resurrection is so much more important than what we believe about resurrection. During this service, we will explore how to be a “resurrection people,” who boldly proclaim that another way is possible. We don’t have to live in fear and be led through violence and coercion. We can be the people, guided by Love and cooperation, who commit to building a better world here and now.

Join us this Sunday as we explore identity and all the ways we are continuously “becoming” throughout our lives. Through stories and music we will ponder what it means to discover who we are, what it feels like to belong, and how we encourage growth within a beloved community.
