Last Sunday was nothing short of extraordinary. The energy in our sanctuary was vibrant, heartfelt, and deeply moving as Dr. Yemaja Jubilee shared her powerful story of growing up in the Jim Crow era — and how she transformed trauma into triumph through healing, resilience, and radical love. Her message was both sobering and uplifting, reminding us that love is not naïve — it is courageous.
The screening of her documentary, followed by a thoughtful and honest Q&A session, created sacred space for important and sometimes uncomfortable conversations. And the inspirational performances by Jareefa Flemming brought a spirit of celebration and soul that resonated through every corner of our sanctuary. We were blessed to be surrounded by a full house of new and returning friends. Our commUnity is alive and THRIVING!
Looking ahead, our Spiritual Outreach team is joyfully preparing for the 2026 CommUnity Holistic Expo on Saturday, April 18th — a dream five years in the making. UWSC will host holistic practitioners, metaphysical experts, wellness providers, artisans, and community-centered businesses. If you know practitioners, vendors, or favorite local food trucks that would be a great fit, please let us know so we can connect them with the team.
As we step into this season of renewal — and celebrate the Lunar New Year — may we continue building a spiritual home where healing, courage, and love flourish.
Blessings,
