Very happy to see Sept 20th #ClimateStrike on the front page of the Unitarian Universalist Association's website. Thanks @UUA! Let's make this the turning point @GretaThunberg and people across the world have been working for! https://www.uua.org/ #FridaysForFuturehttps://twitter.com/billmckibben/status/1171216597928828928 …
@UUA @UUXMNR @uuplanet @YAYAUUA @uua_lgbtq @FirstUUNash question. I was told by my Unitarian Universalism church that a lot of our churches are moving or removing the rainbow flag for fear of retaliation. Is this true? Have you heard of this?
Someone asked if UU congregations are giving up on hanging rainbow banners due to theft and vandalism. NOT A CHANCE!
In honor of our commitment, tweet a photo of your congregations rainbow banners and related pix! Include hashtags: #UUTwitter #LGBTQpic.twitter.com/q0ovcASLTk
UU Congregations in MA, we have rainbow banners! What about rest of you? #UUTwitter #LGBTQpic.twitter.com/PkytXJbyd4
This is one of many reasons why Unitarian Universalists are joining the #ClimateStrike on Sept 20th!https://twitter.com/UUSC/status/1172137823832629248 …
Have you RSVPed for the #ClimateStrike yet? Here’s @uua @SidewithLove climate strike partner link https://actionnetwork.org/event_campaigns/us-climate-strikes/?source=side-with-love&referrer=group-side-with-love …
Strike if you stand with humanity and are committed to addressing climate crisis.
Skip it if you’re in favor of accelerating climate impacts
To my UU colleagues. I know. You are SO BUSY. Who has time to strike? All the more reason to #ClimateStrike and show up in massive numbers on critical days like Sept 20th!
Keep in mind, if you don’t lead your congregation on climate, a church strike may be next. Just sayin...https://twitter.com/uuplanet/status/1172140873859158017 …
On Sept 20th I’m going to be striking with what I hope is a huge Unitarian Universalist contingent w/ @UUA @UUMassAction @UUMFE @UUSC.

One of our youth is doing this as part of her Girl Scout Gold Award. This is their second session.
In regard to a question about rainbow banners:
We became a Welcoming Congregation in 1999 and have banners out front and out back.
Our congregation is also proud to host a Greater Boston @PFLAG support group & SSHAGLY, an #LGBTQ youth group.

Yesterday was amazing. We need to celebrate and then turn to what’s next. As a congregation, to sustain this work you need a climate action team, a plan, a schedule, leaders, organizational partners, and more.
