We begin a four-part series exploring Deepa Iyer's social change ecosystem through the lens of human development — starting where the body starts: in the gut, with those who move first. The Disrupters, Frontline Responders, and Experimenters act before certainty arrives.

In our Social Justice Sunday service on June 28, Chuck Collins and Lou Snead will invite our congregation to consider the many ways we can resist feeling powerless to stand up against the forces of political authoritarianism, religious self-righteousness, and racial superiority that seem to be dominating our nation’s political landscape today. In the spirit of the resistance expressed in the hippie and black power movements of the 1960s and 1970s our congregation is encoura

As Bill Withers sings, "Then I look at you, and the world's alright with me. Just one look at you, and I know it's gonna be: A lovely day!" Think of this as a love letter to the congregation and to all those who gather in joy and in sorrow to work toward the beloved community that signals a lovely day for all. We will have our Annual Congregational Meeting after service.

Our covenants are promises that are the foundation of our congregational polity - they make us, practitioners without creed or canon, a bound community. But why? What do these promises make possible? Combining the work of Parker Palmer and James Luther Adams, we'll put forward a claim about our community's purpose and process.

From the streets of Minneapolis to the ICE detention centers in Texas, music is playing a powerful role in resistance to authoritarianism. This Sunday, join Parker Woodland --led by UU Rev. Erin Walter of the Texas Unitarian Universalist Justice Ministry (TXUUJM) -- for a special music-centric service. The Austin band regularly performs to support causes grounded in UU values, from abolition to democracy to LGBTQIA+ rights, and Rev. Erin and guitarist Andrew Solin will share

This Sunday our children have a lot to say about love. Join us! There will be participatory music, a picture book, and words of wisdom from our members with a low vantage point and a big, big view.

This year's stewardship theme is Learn, Love, Grow — three words that describe what SGUUF does every week and three words that describe what we're asking of ourselves as a community this year.

"If you love someone, set them free." - Sting How can this way of putting Love at the Center, inform how we approach Religion as modern UU's? Not just in how we serve the adults in our community, but in how and what we teach our youth?

GEORGETOWN, Texas — Families across Georgetown ISD are receiving meaningful financial relief thanks to a generous donation from the San Gabriel Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, whose members recently stepped up to help pay off outstanding student meal balances. The contribution, led by the Fellowship’s Social Justice Team, reflects a shared commitment to supporting students and ensuring every child has access to meals without added stress or stigma. “We believe that every p

Join us for an all-ages Social Justice Sunday where art and social justice come together to explore how artists, activists, and everyday people use humor, images, and handmade creations to call out injustice and inspire change. Inspired by the Guerrilla Girls, zine-making, and other creative practices, this interactive service invites us to complain about what we care about in a creative and unique way.

Grief is an integral part of life that requires our attention if we want to be fully available for life. In our culture, however, we have forgotten how to share our grief with one another. When we add to our personal losses the experience of economic instability, ecological degradation, the extinction of species, individual and collective health crises, and the unrest and turmoil within human societies, the burden of grief that we are carrying as individuals can begin to feel

For International Women's Day, we'll continue our exploration of the work of Simone Weil - moving from her work on attention as spiritual practice, to her social justice oriented work on the necessity of duties preceding rights.

On the first Sunday of each month, we explore our Soul Matters theme. For this month, that's Paying Attention. Our teacher in attention is philosopher-mystic Simone Weil.

I got on a bus headed south, past San Antonio to a community called Dilley, Texas. There is a modern day American internment / concentration / prison camp there, we call it a detention center. Let's talk about what I saw, what I learned, and what we might all need to learn if we want things to change.

Could it be that one of the most effective ways to subvert a prophet is to turn them into an idol? There is a case to be made that this is what "the church" has done to Jesus. There is a case to be made that this is what American Culture has done with Dr. King. If we toss the idol, maybe we can ask what the prophet was trying to teach.
