Join us online or in person for a “chalice cafe” style gathering. Our topic this week will be how we inhabit our UU identity - is it something you share with people? What do you say if someone asks about it? Because we believe in freedom of belief, we tend to be non-evangelizing and this […]
February is Black History Month.

However, it's an important facet to how we agree to come together, and maybe more importantly how we agree to disagree. Come with your ideas, opinions and suggestions on how we covenant […]
Last week we learned that the word “covenant” comes from covenir, to travel together.
