BLUU Havens are local, social gatherings for Black UUs. If you are a Black UU, or a Black person who shares our values of love, justice, and liberation, we hope you’ll connect with a BLUU Haven if there is one in your area.

In this new season, this New Year, we return to one another and to this Black Sacred Space. As part of a ritual of returning and reclaiming in this New Year, let’s come together and reflect on the idea of home. What feels like home to you? What leads you back home? What do you need to find home? Come, let us worship together!


BLUU's online worship services are Black Sacred Space in their entirety - by and for Black people, with the words and voices of Black folks across the diaspora - and we hope that Black UUs and Black UU-adjacent folks (who share our values) from far and wide will join us!

For our non-Black siblings in faith, please DO share this invitation with Black folks in your life and community. Getting the word out about BLUU’s gatherings and other programming is one powerful way of lending your support, and we deeply appreciate it!


For all of our services, feel free to come into our BLUU Zoom Room as early as 15 minutes before the start of the service to get settled, say hello to the folks who are already gathering, and listen to the music softly playing as we all prepare for our time together

Pastoral care is a model of emotional and spiritual support that can be found in all cultures and traditions. People who provide pastoral care offer support to people in their joys, sorrows, and uncertainties associated with specific life events occurring while part of the community in which pastoral caregivers serve. Spiritual care is a multi-faceted model of support in individuals’ search for meaning, purpose, wholeness, and connection in day-to-day life. 

BLUU is blessed with a community filled with pastoral and spiritual leadership. Please don't forget that the BLUU Ministerial Network has a pastoral care line available for Black folks. You can text or call 984-219-8711 to schedule a time to speak with a BLUU chaplain.
