Sacred Solidarity – Heather Vickery
Wednesday, 29 January, 2025
The recording opens with a reading – Cultivating Trust as an Organizing Strategy by Adaku Utah. Then our choir performs “Let it Matter” by Elizabeth Alexander. The sermon was provided by Heather Vickery, the UUSC Coordinator for Congregational Activism. It was titled Sacred Solidarity: Accompaniment as an Expression of Our Faith. Heather’s summary of the message: Accompaniment is the radical act of being with someone even when it is hard and you don’t know how things will turn out. With the increase in fascism across our country, our society often tells us to isolate, take care of our own first, and fear the other. However, our faith calls us to hold love at the center, to recognize everyone as family even if we’ve never met, and to support and follow the lead of those most impacted by systems of oppression. Join us to learn of the ways UUs are accompanying trans and gender expansive individuals and families, asylum seekers and others on the frontlines of building the beloved community.
