#SoulMatters #UUFresno #hopeincommunity
An image of two hands reaching for each other and text that says 'The danger of hopelessness is that we can lose each other... It's easy to start believing that your neighbor is the problem and that hoarding is a better strategy than generosity. When community starts to break down, we lose the most important source of hope we have: each other.' by Rev. Sean Parker Dennison

It’s about recognizing that every human being has value—no matter who they are, where they come from, or what they believe. It calls #UUs to treat everyone with respect and compassion, and to build communities and systems that honor that worth in action, not just in words. #uucwf

On October 18, we rise.

Not to defend broken systems, but to defend each other.
