Hearts Encompassing The Globe
from Complete Service-First Unitarian Universalist Society of San Francisco
Reverend Jeremiah Kalendae, preaching on how our heritage teaches us that the most profound social progress happens when it is rooted in liberal religious spiritual values, traditions, and wisdom. Unitarian Universalism has for generations married social justice work with spirituality, the(a)ology, and religious mission. The mystical activist Andrew Harvey writes: "Sacred Activism is a transforming force of compassion-in-action that is born of a fusion of deep spiritual knowledge, courage, love, and passion, with wise radical action in the world. The large-scale practice of Sacred Activism can become an essential force for preserving and healing the planet and its inhabitants." This sacred work infuses the life of our congregation--from working on the streets of San Francisco to caring for children and speaking out for the voiceless. One of our latest trailblazing ministries is our LGBT Guardian Group which is helping aslyees and refugees escaping torture and execution in their countries of origin. A special collection will be taken up this MLK Sunday to grow this work as we explore how, as sacred activists, our hearts can encompass the globe.
