Minister: Rev. Leslie Music: Marsha Sousa
When writer and climate activist Naomi Klein agreed to address the 2020 UU General Assembly, she could not have imagined she would be doing so in the midst of a global pandemic. Nor could she have anticipated that she would be filled with a renewed sense of hope, and an unshakable belief that previously impossible things may be on the brink of the possible. Rev. Leslie will share part of her lecture with us, and thoughts on the courage to be found in this moment.

Join us this Sunday for a service exploring the journey to self-awareness that many have been on since the Black Lives Matter movement started in 2014. Three members of the UU Fellowship of Fairbanks will share reflections on what has helped them get past barriers in their own thinking about racial injustice, transphobia, and other issues of systemic and internalized bias in our culture and ourselves. How can learning history help us come to new understandings about the present? What should we do when we are trying to be an ally but are told we are “doing it wrong”? How might our awareness and acceptance be challenged if our own child comes out as trans? The journey to awakening is not one that has an endpoint and we all won’t take the same path, but we can share those guideposts with each other that have helped us overcome stumbles and continue with more confidence.

Socially-Distanced Social Events!
The newly established UUFF Ministry of Fun is bringing you a gaggle of Socially Distanced Social Events to brighten your 2020 summer and help us stay connected while staying safe. We want to make these activities as safe as possible so most people will feel safe participating, so we have established the Safety Covenant described below and ask that all participates abide by it. Masks will be required at all events, and a volunteer will be on site to gently remind us to keep our 6’ distance. We ask everyone to make their own decision about what feels safe to them when deciding to participate. Read More »
Minister: Rev. Leslie Ahuvah Fails
The Creative Spirit is at work in the world — especially in uncertain times. Artists and theologians who lived through periods of pandemic illness and political instability have much to teach us about remaining spiritually grounded in our present moment. Let us learn from their experience, and from one another!
