30 Days of Love 2026 - Week Four: Nurturing Community

Building community that nourishes relationships is core to our UU faith and must be central to our justice work. When we share food, play together, and prioritize time to get to know each other in our committees, congregations, and communities, we live into our interdependence and make our organizing stronger. We counter the myth of the charismatic solo leader by cultivating teams, not heroes. - Rev. Cathy Rion Starr

Week Four of 30 Days of Love is live! This week’s theme is Nurturing Community.

We’ll focus on covenant, collaboration, and shared care—practicing how to stay connected even when the work is hard. Because transformation happens in relationship.

Check out our incredible offerings for this week: a reflection from Rev. Cathy Rion Starr, UUA Leadership Development Specialist; an original coloring sheet; a theological conversation with Rev. Dr. Jé Hooper; a meditative body practice; multiple activities for families to do together; and a journal worksheet to reflect on this week's theme.

Join us tonight at 2pm HT / 8pm ET for our February Gathering (our monthly virtual event that centers nurturing community!). Tonight's theme is Stories of Faith over Fear featuring the many ways UUs are demonstrating resilience and resistance - in Minnesota, Maine, SF Bay Area, and Chicago - with music from Songs for Liberation. Register to join us tonight!
