Multicultural Growth and Witness
The mission of the Multicultural Growth & Witness staff group is to empower Unitarian Universalist congregations and community leaders to minister effectively in our multicultural world. We are here to help Unitarian Universalists:
- Create justice-seeking religious communities inclusive of people of all races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, gender identities/expressions, abilities, ages, and economic and educational backgrounds
- Live our faith through service, education, witness, advocacy, and congregation-based community organizing
- Dismantle racism, heterosexism, classism, and ableism at home and in our larger society and stand on the side of love
Multicultural Growth & Witness is made up of two major offices: Multicultural Ministries and Witness Ministries. Multicultural Ministries includes the office of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Ministries (LGBTQ Ministries).
