Partnership
Music led by Cindy Freeman & Max Parks
“The transformative power of partnerships: As members of a largely European American (or white) denomination, Unitarian Universalists must reach across racial barriers to ensure an anti-oppressive multicultural approach to social change…. [P]artnerships require us to behave in anti-racist and anti-oppressive ways; and in this way, they keep all parties accountable. In faith terms, such partnerships are at the heart of creating a Beloved Community.” (Susan Leslie, “Creating Partnerships for Anti-racist Action”, in Soul Work: Anti-Racist Theologies in Dialogue)
Everything we do, through partnerships.

Values for Mutual Thriving
“We seek to create a world of mutual thriving for all beings, where everyone has enough and no one has to be afraid. Together we strive to build this beloved community, growing in wisdom, care, justice, service, and wonder; open to All.” (UUCS Purpose Statement)
Consciousness, partnership, community: three values that have built our social justice ministry, that can help us create a world of mutual thriving for all.
Exploration of Faiths: Unitarian Universalists
Gratitude to the Spartanburg County Public Library and especially to Gwen Murtha for the opportunity to share about the Unitarian Universalist movement and our congregation in their Virtual Exploration of Faiths series.
Thank you to every person, whether part of our congregation or not, who makes this world more and more one in which we are Free To Love.
