Thursday, March 20 | UU Common Read Book Discussion Group!
This year's UU Common Read is Authentic Selves: Celebrating Trans and Nonbinary People and Their Families. Retired minister and member of the church, Rev. Peggy Meeker, will facilitate a discussion of this important book where we come to know the "real lives—revelations, challenges, joys, and networks of support" of trans and nonbinary peoples along with their families. We will break up the book into sections to discuss 1/3 of the book at a time.
This started March 13 and will run for 3-4 sessions on Thursday evenings from 7-8:30pm, ALL on Zoom. If you are interested or have questions please email Rev. Michelle at edu@uuroc.org. You can purchase the book through uuabookstore.org.
Let's Welcome Family Promise Guest Families Home!
