How do we stay in relationship with people on the opposite side of an issue from us? When is it time to compromise and when to hold the line? What do we do when we just can’t agree? Rev. Cindy will explore this perplexing issue.

The 19th century Unitarian minister Theodore Parker once said "the moral arc of the universe is long but it bends towards justice." As Unitarian Universalists, our theology and principles have demanded that we stand with the oppressed and on the side of love, freedom, and equality. In many ways, even with all its historic struggles and setbacks, the US as a country has been "a rights expanding nation." Often these changes did not happen quickly, but the arc continued to bend towards justice until the recent decision overturning the well established right of a woman to have an abortion. It is the first time in modern history where the Supreme Court has taken a long established right away. Moreover, many other rights based on the same legal reasoning as Roe vs Wade are sure to be challenged and likely struck down. Many conservative religions have promoted, and will continue to promote, this attack on the rights of women, LGBTQ+ folks, and other minorities based on their repressive and controlling dogma and archaic scriptural interpretation. Our own Rev. Tom will examine this assault on what most of those in our faith tradition hold dear, how it is a violation of our principles and history, and what we as members of a liberal faith tradition must do about it.
Childcare through grade 5 will be provided.

This service, coordinated by the Racial Justice Task Force, will explore the ways that our lives, the diversity of our world, and our social justice efforts intersect. Through music, readings, and the morning sermon reflection, the congregation will be encouraged to explore the intersections of their own lives—and the challenges and opportunities that awareness of life in the intersections can bring to our work for social justice.
