Beloved Conversations

Ready for Anti-Racist Spiritual Transformation?

Registration for the Fall Term 2024 of Beloved Conversations: Within is now OPEN!

Beloved Conversations is a program for people seeking to embody racial justice as a spiritual practice. Our program is grounded in Unitarian Universalism, developed and offered by the Fahs Collaborative at Meadville Lombard Theological School, and open to all learners. Within focuses on the internal work that each of us needs to do as we engage in deeper personal understanding, explore questions of race and racism, extract our souls and spirits from white supremacy culture, and work for racial justice.

Please note that for this Fall Term, our Within program for BIPOC+, Gathering Our Selves, is on hiatus and not open for registration.

Registration for our Within program for white folks, Un/Learning for Liberation, is open now through August 31, 2024. Click on the link below to learn more about the program and register NOW!

Hello friends! Do you have people of color, families of color, or multiracial families in your congregation or community (or maybe you yourself?) who could use a few days to be in community with other UUs who share this experience? Especially if you’re in New England or upper east coast? Please share this with them! Thank you!

The Well: A Spiritual Retreat for People of Color and Our Families!
Wednesday to Saturday, July 24-27, 2024
At Ferry Beach Retreat and Conference Center, in S**o, Maine

The Well is life-giving retreat for BIPOC+ and our families. Just like a communal well in ancient times, the Well offers a space to share wisdom, learn from each other, and talk about things that matter. And we have a LOT of fun! The Well is a rare multi-generational opportunity for children, youth, and adults to gather on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean for four days of spiritual deepening and connecting with people who share similar journeys. Learn more at www.druumm.org/the-well-2024 Sponsored by DRUUMM and the UUA.

UU Religious Educator and Within alum, Rev.
