"A Kid from Altoona on the Line"

Rev. Teague is grateful to be back at UU Houston. This time he is pondering that we are fairly consistently celebrating the PRIDE Month events and participating in parades as radical welcoming religious communities of Unitarian Universalists. We have the appropriate rainbow attire and are led in these events by our own LGBTQQIA+ members and friends. We have hosted same sex marriages for many years prior to the legal recognition and were present to do more of them as the freedom to marry became the law of the land.   Rev. Teague believes that given our loving stance, maybe we are ready and able to do more. It is Fathers Day Sunday and he proposes we embrace the communal effort to be the providers and protectors of the children now proudly carrying rainbow flags and living in myriad queer identities. He says, "I know I could have used the parental help. I think there are youth looking for what we can uniquely offer."
