MLK’s Dream to End Poverty
Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was not only radical with his all-inclusive and anti-racist love, but also with his dream of an end to poverty for all those who suffer from it. Come celebrate MLK’s life and work, and learn about the feasibility of a guaranteed basic income and the religious roots of debt forgiveness. In light of escalating polycrisis, I will also share resources for coping emotionally and spiritually with these times of upheaval and unrest. –Shams Cohen, UUFLG minister

Let’s Talk about Hope
With our days of sunlight growing noticeably longer and new blossoms budding, hope springs eternal. Today, let’s discuss a few thoughts from research psychologist David DeSteno who wrote “There’s a Better Way to Be Hopeful” for the New York Times. We will then have small group discussions on approaches to hope. The service will be lay-led by congregation member Georgia Platts.

Stronger Together
To make our world better, each of us must celebrate and share our unique gifts to nurture our planet. As curious, spiritually independent people, our Fellowship strives to provide an open and supportive environment to explore the creativity, strength, and wisdom within the diverse experiences and aspirations of each of us. We find joy and meaning in such a community. And by working together, we strengthen our connections.
