As your co-ministers, we are sometimes invited to accompany people in their journeys of life and love, and it is an honour. We get to hear or witness how love shapes your relationships, your commitments, who you are, and who you are becoming.

We are grateful for the ways that you choose to put Love at the center, by tending to relationships. We have seen you put Love at the center through actions to create justice, which, as Cornel West reminds us, is what love looks like in public.

And, we have experienced your love for this congregation, in the rapt attention in worship during word, song, and quiet, in the buzz and murmur of social hour after, in the creative exchange of ideas at a planning meeting for a 125th event, in your presence and participation, in the tearful sharing and trust in a grief group gathering, and in the ways that care is offered in person, in email, on social media, and through the mail. These large and small ways that we make love manifest matters, especially when so much is at stake.

UUSS member, Juliana Post-Good, shared this link with us after attending worship. We thought you might enjoy it, too! Let’s do all the good we can do!

What’s love got to do with it? Everything.
