12/21 service: "Amaterasu's Reflection"
Amaterasu, the Japanese sun goddess, retreated to a cave and plunged the Earth into darkness. But in seeing her own reflection she returned her light to the world. How are we like Amaterasu and how might we seek light in our own reflections?

Hanukkah reminds us that even the smallest light can guide us forward, especially when hope feels fragile. May these eight nights bring courage, connection, and renewed commitment to a more just world. Chag Sameach to all who celebrate. #Hanukkah #UU #UnitarianUniveralist #Hope

ALTERNATIVE GIFT FAIR
Saturday, November 29th
6 to 7 PM
Mary’s Place at Taos Lifestyle (815 Paseo Del Pueblo Sur)
Do your holiday shopping & support local 501(c)3 non-profits
by making gift donations in honor of loved ones.

What life offers – day by day, even minute by minute – is the opportunity to do something with what is presented to us. That “something” might be a bold act of resistance, growing in understanding, lamenting, or celebrating. It might be saying, through our words AND actions, “Thank you.”

Today we honor the transgender lives taken by anti-trans violence. We hold their memory with love and stand with trans communities in grief, resilience, and strength.

May we deepen our solidarity and work for a world where all trans people can live safely and freely.

As we move into the "season of giving,” how might you give like a serviceberry tree, in a way that creates no expectation of a reciprocal gift?

Participants said at least seven of those arrested were faith leaders from Presbyterian, Lutheran, Baptist, Unitarian Universalist, and Jewish traditions.

Engaging with our larger community is a key part of our UU faith. This Sunday, we’ll highlight some of the local organizations that currently partner with UCOT in providing critical services to our neighbors.
