Come Beloveds History Speak

ZOOM ONLY Join us this Sunday for a powerful sermon titled "Come Beloveds History Speak" by roddy bell-shelton biggs (they/them). Delve into the rich tapestry of history, exploring the significance of banned books, LGBTQ+ Pride, and the vital topics of sexuality and sex education. Discover how the voices of the past and present guide us toward a more inclusive and compassionate future. Don't miss this enlightening opportunity to celebrate our diverse humanity and embrace the wisdom of those who came before us. roddy bell-shelton biggs (they/them; lowercase preferred) is a Queer, BIPOC, non-binary seminarian and aspiring Public Theologian. They claim a progressive anti-oppressive Christian faith grounded in the Unitarian Universalist faith.
