Thirty Days of Love is our annual celebration that runs approximately from Martin Luther King, Jr. Day in January through Valentine’s Day in February. It is an opportunity to lift up the ways Unitarian Universalists and many of our partner organizations are building and organizing by taking bold, courageous action for intersectional racial justice.

In 2021, 30 Days of Love will focus on four themes from a recently published report called Widening the Circle of Concern, which was developed by the Commission on Institutional Change, a UUA Board commissioned group charged with researching, reporting, and making recommendations for transforming white supremacy and other oppressions in the institutional history and practices of the UUA and its 1,000-plus congregations and covenanted communities.

Each week, we will share a ‘playlist’ or ‘menu’ of activities for individuals to interact with, connected with our weekly theme. We will have playlists for general, kid, youth, and family/multigenerational audiences which will include activities in the categories of Read, Watch, Participate, Listen, and Worship.

Our ‘menus’ by audience:

Sunday, February 14: Side With Love Sunday

In early February, WorshipWeb will include a full worship service, as a downloadable video, for all Unitarian Universalist congregations to enjoy at their regular worship time. (You may use this Side With Love worship service on a different Sunday, too.) This worship service will feature stirring music, deep-hearted reflection, and moving testimonies from a range of UU leaders. A detailed order of service will be available on January 22nd on WorshipWeb. Stay tuned for information about this service, and a watch party later on February 14th for those who want to see it again!

See our Calendar of Live Events — many require preregistration.
