  • A lone person walking on the red-tiled floor of the Great Hall of the Ellis Island Immigration Museum. They are walking through a patch of the floor that is reflecting light from a window that is out of the frame. The person looks blurry and somewhat disjointed because they were moving while the camera’s shutter was open.
    We need church community to be a space where people can speak honestly with one another about their experience—whether in recovery, in addiction, or even in relapse.

  • A painting of a small fountain in a pond. On the surface of the water, ripples radiate outward from the fountain. Beneath the ripples are bright colors forming indistinct shapes. Several small golden squares among the colors give a hint of regularity.
    How do I leave behind the pain, the disappointment, the anger, at what has been? The unconscious cruelty, the negating, the selfish harm I have walked through, knowing the possibility always exists that it could happen again…

  • A chalice with the word Love over the flame, with six outstretched swirls that create a circular space within them. Together, they form a six-petal flower shape and alternate in color between goldenrod and dark pink. Each contains one of the six UU shared values, printed in a modern font. Clockwise: Transformation (aqua), Equity (bright green), Pluralism (red), Interdependence (dark blue), Justice (goldenrod), and Generosity (dark pink).
    … Love is not only at the center but also the opening that invites us to lament, celebrate, and care.

  • In the foreground, the singer of a punk band grips a microphone and sings with passion. Behind him, colored lights and smoke fill a stage that holds three guitarists. In the background, people are rocking out to the music.

  • Christmas-themed crafts on a white table, seen from above. The focus of the image is a tic-tac-toe game: the squares are marked by sprays of pine needles decorated with holly berries, the Xs are pine-tree-shaped Christmas cookies covered in powdered sugar, and the Os are gingerbread people partly covered with chocolate icing and colorful sprinkles. Surrounding the game are a holiday card, a bowl of Christmas cookies, cinnamon sticks, more sprays of pine needles, and holly berries on otherwise bare branches.
    The magic of Christmas doesn't just happen: It’s made, just like how each year a miracle is celebrated. But that very first Christmas—that miracle—didn’t just happen either…

  • A close-up of colorful woven fabric. The warp and weft are visible: The warp is uniform throughout, and is a shiny pale red. The weft is different on almost every row, and each row looks like it might be a shoelace. The shoelaces are solid colors — black, blue, grey, brown, lime, pink — except for the center row, which is in a multi-colored pattern.
    After Sal’s beloved partner Lee dies, Sal’s neighbors in the big apartment building want to make them a grief blanket. But individually, no one has enough fabric or yarn…

  • The front cover of Tricia Hersey’s book “Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto”
    Rest isn’t a luxury, but an absolute necessity if we’re going to survive and thrive. Rest isn’t an afterthought, but a basic part of being human. Rest is a divine right. Rest is a human right.

  • At night, from the vantage point of a dark stretch of beach, there are three light sources visible: On the left there is a lighthouse, shining bright streams of light in several directions; on the right, the moon glows behind a light cloud cover; and in the middle, we see fainter light from several houses farther down the coast. The foam from the sea is also visible, and shows the shoreline stretching in a straight line from the lower right of the photo to the houses in the middle of the photo.
    We cannot know what all the year may bring, and would we heed the prophecy if we could?

    Rest is a healing portal to our deepest selves. Rest is care. Rest is radical.… Rest is a form of resistance because it disrupts and pushes back against capitalism and white supremacy.

  • A white woman with dreadlocks and a colorful hairband, and a Black man with short hair dyed blond, sort food and clothing at a food bank. They are working at a table on which there are large plastic bins for clothes and smaller bins for bread and canned goods. Behind them are the windows of the room they are working in, with small potted plants on the windowsill.
    Our true wealth is the welfare of all beings and the planet that we all call home.

  • A person in a black top and blue pants, out of focus, stands looking away from the camera on a forest path. Our point of view is ground level, and in the foreground, in focus, there is a dry brown fallen leaf.
    We lift up those who fear that their hurts, their pains, are too insignificant for healing. May they know that their hurt and their pain is valid, no matter the size, and may they feel comforted in the knowledge that they are not alone and that they are loved.
