Workshops
Where Do We Go From Here? Widening the Circle of Concern: with Rev. Nathan Hollister and Kathy McGowan:
Join us in a discussion of how we might live out our UU values in the aftermath of the election. What does our response look like, depending on those election results? How do we continue our work for justice, peace, and an ecological world? How might we continue our work of dismantling white supremacy culture, both in ourselves, in our congregations, and in our wider communities? What should our actions be with regard to the Commission on Institutional Change’s recommendations in their work “Widening the Circle of Concern” be? Our work doesn’t end on November 7th, so let’s talk!

We will talk about how we support each other.
