In Christianity, Easter is the celebration of the resurrection and transfiguration of Jesus--the transformation from human to divine form. On this Easter, we will consider how the the art of Drag is a holy transformation. Come (in drag if you wish) and look at his story in an entirely new way.
This Sunday, Lillian Aponte Miranda from The Florence Immigrant and Refugee Rights Project joins us to discuss immigration as one of the moral and human rights challenges of our time. She will share the challenges faced by immigrants at the U.S-Mexico border and within adult and child detention centers, and how we can center justice, human dignity, and hope in charting a path forward.
For our annual Flower Communion, bring a flower to share as we celebrate, beauty, gardens, natural growth and community. We will also be dedicating the youngest members of our community.
In 1894, Unitarian minister Rev. James Vila Blake wrote a covenant that became the backbone of the one said during each of UUCP's worship services. A few years ago, Rev.

In the series of our UU Values, we will be exploring the next value of Generosity, which connects us to both gratitude but also hope for what the future we can create. We will ground ourselves in our UU Values to kick off our Stewardship season. We will also welcome new members this morning.
