At Side with Love, we are tending the soil to build capacity for skilled & vibrant UU organizing so that UUs can show up faithfully, relationally, and accountably in campaigns.  Through practice and presentation, we will build familiarity with Side with Love’s organizing framework, tools, and current work.

Experience a version of Side with Love’s “Now What: the Gathering for Congregational Leaders.” Together, we’ll reflect on the current moment and the ministry to which we are called through reflection and breakout groups. 

Ongoing

UU Climate Justice Revival Meditation Space

  • open Wednesday, June 18 - Sunday, June 22, 8AM-5PM

  • Hilton Baltimore Inner Harbor, Stone Room

In these times of crisis, devastation, and uncertainty, it is an act of radical (root) love to take care of each other.  If you are feeling grief, rage, hope, gratitude, curiosity, or numbness, the UU Climate Revival Planning Team welcomes you into the Climate Justice Healing & Art Space.  All General Assembly attendees are invited to engage in the self-directed offerings for reflection and renewal - including a collaborative altar, guided meditations shaped by this year’s winning Climate Revival Art submissions, and sensory offerings for a little bit of nature indoors.  In addition, mornings will include a facilitated somatic exercise, and evenings will feature a song sharing circle or guided meditation.  This space is our gift to you and to each other - we hope you take some time to practice the care, rest, and connection that is essential for our resilience.
