I was raised Catholic and my mom would always say that the community aspect of church was so important. However, we never stayed for coffee and donuts in the parish hall! I wonder how much of my love for my UU church is because I want that sweet sweet coffee and treats.

I am posing this here before I take it to our DRE or minister. Are there resources for families that can be accessed between OWL sessions? My 7th grader got shafted by lockdown and has never been to OWL. They just finished a 4-6th grade session, and the unit for his cohort starts this fall. I need guidance now on burgeoning sexuality, particularly around pornography use. Due to the way he communicates with me, I think our relationship and trust level would suffer if I was the one leading this conversation, and six months is a long time to wait for help.

Hi. Through the religious and spiritual exploration that I’ve went through these past few years I’ve recently realized that I think I identify most with being a Universalist. But now I see there is Christian Universalism vs Unitarian Universalism and I was wondering what the main differences are to see which resonates most with me? Thank you so much in advance.
