How does Monty Python's "Life of Brian" intersect with our UU values? What is "blasphemy" today? What does the film's depiction of mob mentality say about our current moment? How can works of imagination spark our faith development? Rev. Susanne presents this year's Auction Sermon, chosen by a congregation member.
"Preemptive Radical Inclusion" and Gender Issues. How can MUUC grow into a community that fully involves and includes people who are transgender, non-binary, or gender expansive?
Working with the Melrose Human Rights Commission, our own Liz Ticcioni, Kris Rodolico, Olivia Frakt, Garin Boyd, and Therese Kay have created several remarkable opportunities to commemorate MLK this coming Monday:
Green Sanctuary is watching the weather for a promising weekend to take a winter hike on the Saugus River Trail at Breakheart, or another nearby trail.
We are organizing volunteers to prepare or purchase and deliver Saturday night dinner for four to the family. You may sign up one time or commit to a schedule.
Tell Gov. Baker to remove racist images and text from the Massachusetts state flag. Legislators finally approved the change. Now the bill sits on the governor's desk. Massachusetts Peace Action asks you to send a message in support, to get those images removed forever.
We were floored by the support we received for the survivors we work with through Renewal House and Believe in Success. We are so grateful to Melrose UU Church for hosting this collection drive.
MUUC has been the volunteer gathering place for Melrose's annual MLK Day of Service, sponsored by the Melrose Human Rights Commission. This year, the MHRC has begun planning a virtual and socially-distanced Day of Service to be held on Monday, January 18.
The AntiRacism Team invites conversation. Want to make a personal pledge to reduce the chances of police misconduct leading to unnecessary death or injury?
Progressive groups across the state are asking you to reach out to Gov. Baker and leaders in the state house to get the strongest possible bill passed. Contact info and a full script is provided here. It's easy to take this stand for justice in MA!
