Habitat and Hope Village

Homelessness in our community is a heartbreaking reality for too many. Our congregation plays a significant role in ameliorating this, but there is more some of us feel called to do – please join us as we share our vision.

A Heartfelt Response

Our minister was arrested for an act of nonviolent civil disobedience to protest the cruel and unjust immigration policies of our federal government. Members and friends have shown strong support for this action, yet some in our community are upset. Let’s hear their voices and concerns and Rev. Rick’s responses.

When I was a Stranger (Water Communion)

A few years ago I visited another UU congregation as a stranger. How did it go?

Bring a small vial of water from home or from your travels to combine in a large container. If you wish, you may share in words what it represents in your life.
