Forum (9:30am)
Climate Resilience Hubs and UUCD - Join us at the Forum on October 19th, 9:30am
What is resilience, and what does it mean to be a resilient congregation? Come learn about UUCD's participation in the Community Climate Resilience Network, a statewide community of practice convened by Minnesota Interfaith Power and Light. We'll share the basics (Resilience 101!), give a virtual tour of the network, and review how we arrived at this point--with rich input from all who participated in our Climate Justice Revival in January 2025. In this interactive session, we seek your feedback on developing a climate resilience plan and invite you to engage in our learning journey, which will run from October through April.

Woven Basket: To support our congregation's mission, please contribute to the Operating Fund and Woven Basket via SimpleGive. The Woven Basket recipient for October is AICHO (American Indian Community Housing Organization. AICHO transforms oppression into opportunity. Created in 1993, AICHO started in a parking lot outside a social service agency with a conversation among Native community members. They asked why our community had no resources, no community spaces and no services that met their cultural needs. AICHO was created as an Indigenous response to social conditions in Duluth, MN, powered by the urban Native American community.
Come, come, whoever you are.
Come In. Connect with yourself, your spirit, and an inclusive community.
Begin. Embark on a free and responsible search for truth and meaning.
Be with us. Together, we will be a force for good in this broken world.
We are Diverse Thinkers
We need not think alike to love alike. We are people of many beliefs and backgrounds: people with a religious background, people with none, people who believe in a God, people who don’t, and people who just let the mystery be. We seek to welcome you just as you are: your whole self, with all your truths and your doubts, your fears and your hopes.
We Support Each Other
From infancy to old age, we support each other’s paths as we seek to live lives of integrity, compassion, commitment, and joy. We help each other learn and grow as we explore our faiths, our identities, and our world.
We Act for Justice
We have a legacy of “deeds not creeds.” Our work for a better world calls us to harness love’s power to stop oppression. From grassroots community organizing to state, national, and corporate advocacy; in protest marches, prayer vigils, and press conferences; in homeless shelters and in prisons, we are called to put our faith into action.
We Serve
Service is at the core of our faith. We are called to make a positive difference in the world. We partner with, and advocate for, people and organizations in need of support. We live our values out loud.
