Horizon UU Church has pledged our support for DRUUMM by sponsoring this worship fund-raiser. Watch for a Share The Plate in September.
Rev. Tyler Coles, Guest Preacher
Dr. Zanaida Robles, Musical Artist
Faith can be both a guiding light and sustaining force throughout the course of one’s life. Yet in a world that is all too cruel and harsh, faith can be twisted, becoming instead a tool that fosters both isolation and a sense of underwhelm. What do we do when this happens for us as Unitarian Universalists? Come, let us gather in the fortifying spirit of love made known in community as we re-member ourselves, for ourselves, in the presence of all that we choose to name as Holy.
This worship service is sure to bring you
inspiration, hope, joy, and/or new insight!!
Dr. Zanaida Stewart Robles (she/her) is an award-winning Black American female composer, vocalist, and teacher. She is a fierce advocate for diversity and inclusion in music education and performance. Her compositional style can be described as classical, energized, soulful, harmonically colorful, rhythmically driven, heavily modal with touches of pop, progressive rock, and African elements.
Inspired by the good news of Unitarian Universalism, Rev. Tyler Coles (they/he) believes the best of our collective ministry strives towards conjuring “the Beloved Kin-dom on earth as it is in heaven.” They engage this mandate through the work of multi-religious organizing, supporting young adults, and movement chaplaincy. They currently serve as a member of Congregational Life in the Southern Region where they support congregations and communities to be the boldest embodiment of our shared faith in their respective communities.
Our program will also feature Ayanna Kafi, DRUUMM President, Rev. Karen Hutt of First Universalist in Minneapolis, Linda Russell of Mt Diablo (CA), and Rev. Christina Shu, a member of our DRUUMM Chaplain Team.
Our Worship & Fundraiser is an opportunity for the wider world of Unitarian Universalism to connect with DRUUMM and be in community together. The Worship is open to everyone while prioritizing space for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color. We particularly encourage our DRUUMM members in multiracial families and White antiracist allies to join.
DRUUMM is the Diverse & Revolutionary UU Multicultural Ministries, a UU People of Color organization. Learn more at www.druumm.org
