The Promise and the Practice: Centering the Voices of Black Unitarian Universalists.
At WHUUF and other UU congregations, white voices and stories are most commonly heard from the pulpit. In this service we will listen to the words of Black Unitarian Universalists.

Stay afterwards for the first film and discussion segment of Race: the Power of Illusion , offered by our Racial Justice team.

My Religious Faith
The word “faith” and its cousin “belief” are challenging words for many Unitarian Universalists. I will share what I have faith in and what gives me hope when all seems hopeless.
Extending Hospitality to Ourselves
Have you noticed that it is often much easier to be hospitable, kind and welcoming to others than to yourself? Today we will consider the possibility of being genuinely hospitable to ourselves.
