SUMMARY:UUs Together explores local example of reparations- Join us!
DESCRIPTION:The monthly meeting of UUs Together\, Monday February 23 7:00-8:30pm virtually\, will turn to the UU Shared Value of Generosity as we learn about the Reparations work of Forest Hill Church\, Presbyterian in Cleveland Heights. Forest Hill has made a commitment to “dismantling structural racism by fearlessly applying our faith to advocate and break down the systems\, practices\, and thinking that underlie discrimination\, bias\, prejudice\, and oppression of people of color”. In October 2022\, as part of that work\, the church endorsed a financial contribution to help a Cleveland Heights minority person(s)\, preferably female\, pull themselves out of Education debt. At our meeting\, Quentin Smith and Mark Chupp from Forest Hill will explain how it was decided that Reparations was the right path\, how the funds were raised\, the recipient chosen\, and the impact it has had. There will be time for questions and answers and\, perhaps\, to explore new ways UUs can live into the Value of Generosity.To receive the zoom link for the meeting\, email Laurie at sunnyskies2023@yahoo.com

SUMMARY:Join UUs Together Monday March 31 to explore our 6 values!
DESCRIPTION:Join UUs Together\, on Monday March 31 virtually at 7pm to dive into the excellent workshop last Saturday at UUCC. Join us to see how Love and Accountability can help us explore our 6 values!Wow\, what a great workshop on Saturday March 22 at UUCC! Happily we had 7 people from UUCC there. If you saw the service on Sunday\, you got a hint of what was shared. I especially appreciated the frame that Renee Ruchotske offered. She took the two (perhaps) most controversial terms in our new Article II\, and used them to help us think about our 6 values (Justice\, Equity\, Transformation\, Pluralism\, Interdependence\, and Generosity). Attendees were from Pittsburgh\, West Virginia\, Youngstown\, Akron\, East Shore\, SWUU\, and more. \n\n\n\nHere are three lines (17-19) from the meaty section on Values and Covenant. I have highlighted the terms:Love is the power that holds us together and is at the center of our shared values. We are accountable to one another for doing the work of living our shared values through the spiritual discipline of Love.UUs Together\, meeting virtually on Monday March 31st from 7-8:30pm will dive into the Saturday workshop with you! In addition to the stalwart people from SouthWest UU\, West Shore UU\, and UUCC\, we may also have a few folks from East Shore and Akron\, who also attended the workshop.Those of us who attended look forward to sharing this\, as well as some great poetry that was created by a group process\, and other reflections. Please join us! \n\n\n\nSend an email to Laurie at sunnyskies2023@yahoo.com for the link.
