Exploring our Mission Statement with our ministers, religious educator and board member
This Winter and Spring we look at the implications of the bold stand the congregation took June 2009. What does true hospitality look like? What contribution do the generous heart and the reasoning mind make to our anti-oppression, multi-cultural work? Should a primary goal of First UU be racial and ethnic diversity? What on earth is privilege and how do we relinquish it? These are important questions to ponder together as we move forward.
Sunday, March 21, 1 to 3 pm
The Rev. Mark Belletini leads us in an examination of the various theories circulating in the Unitarian Universalist world about diversity within congregations. Is diversity within our congregations a primary goal, a partial reality or something itself understood in diverse ways? How do those understandings support members in their desires to live a more integrated life? How do they help develop skills, teach knowledge, create structure and stoke passion which together could make our congregation a leader in fighting oppression in Franklin County?
Registration requested
In April veteran diversity/anti-oppression trainer and board member Bob Gordon will help us explore our privileges and ways to use them to dismantle oppression.
