  • Prehistoric stenciled outlines of many overlapping hands on a cave wall at Cueva de las Manos, Argentina. Some hands appear in ochre on pale rock, and others are white against darker rock.

  • Two parents on a hammock with their two children. One parent is kissing the head of the other parent, while they all embrace each other and smile
    In Spring 2025, the UUA Wave Cohort called “Caring for Parents as Whole Beings” gathered UUs who are parents currently raising children to learn more about the challenges their families face and what kinds of support they want from their congregations. This is a report from the conveners.

  • A lecturer with graying hair speaks at a lectern, holding a page of notes, his back to the camera. In the background, blurred, is a bank of seats filled with audience members.

  • A table covered with a red tablecloth and a purple tablecloth. The front is labeled with the word PRIDE, with each letter handwritten on a separate piece of letter paper. On the center of the table is a clear box filled with large serving spoons. The rest of the table is completely covered by many loose spoons. Among the spoons are many handwritten signs labeled with types of disabilities: “cognitive,” “developmental,” “sensory,” “hidden,” and so on.
    This two-part ritual, inspired by the disability justice concept of spoon theory, includes a litany of things that can “take spoons away” from people. Part of the WorshipWeb collection “Worth and Dignity of All Bodies.”

  • Sitting on a couch, with only their torso and upper legs visible, a dark-skinned person wearing jeans and an olive T-shirt leans forward with their elbows on their knees. In one hand they dangle a military dog tag, and a similar tag is visible hanging from their neck outside of their T-shirt.
    As citizens of this democratic nation, we’re all complicit in its wars and conflicts.

  • An woman wearing an olive T-shirt and camo pants, suggesting a military veteran, leans forward in her chair, hands together, towards a counselor who's seated with a clipboard of notes on her lap.

  • A person with dark skin, wearing denim overalls, is partially seen kneeling on the floor. They are holding a long-handled paintbrush and dabbing yellow paint on a paint palette that rests on the floor, at the level of the camera. They appear to be in the middle of a painting in a studio.
    The freedom to seek, discover, and accept others’ truths is a sweet path to follow.
