Reproductive rights are in the news, and our UU faith compels us to be part of this conversation. Abortion is more than a political football or an abstract moral conundrum, it is a lived reality and a visceral question of bodily autonomy for anyone capable of becoming pregnant. Join us this Sunday to hear reflections on the religious, historical, and lived realities behind the too often simplified “abortion debate.” Rev. Sally will be joined in the pulpit by UUCUC members Julie Laut and Celia Barbieri. This service will lift up the importance of choice, trust, and listening to the voices of those most closely affected by the policies and norms we uphold.
If you have a personal experience connected to this topic, there is still time to share it if you choose. With your permission, part of all of your story could potentially be incorporated into the service, with identifying details removed. Rev. Sally will be the only person to read your submissions, made to associate-minister@uucuc.org, before Tuesday Sept 28.
