Inside WHUUF

We are proud to have achieved and maintained our status as a Welcoming Congregation. And we continue to work to become more inclusive of LGBTQ people and attentive to LGBTQ issues. In recent years we have…

  • Shifted from having a Welcoming Congregation Task Force to a permanent Gender and Sexuality Justice Team
  • Designated all-genders bathrooms on both levels of our building
  • Started offering pronoun stickers for our name tags
  • Hosted educational workshops on LGBTQ issues
  • Hosted a screening of Trans Dudes with Lady Cancer and a Q&A with the filmmakers

In the wider world

WHUUFers have a long tradition of going to Portland Pride and Beaverton Pride. We always march and it’s always an honor – and a blast!

We also always keep an eye out for opportunities to take action for gender and sexuality justice. Past actions include participation in the Women’s March and participation in a postcard campaign through Advocates for Youth to oust the federal official who tried to deny abortion care to an undocumented teenager in detention.
