Two groups of people gather at tables, some standing, some sitting, as they play board games in Sandburg Hall

Faith Formation: Q’ Pasa?A large hotel ballroom filled with people seated at tables for the 2026 MLK Jr. Breakfast in Asheville
Beloveds, tantas cosas, so much is happening! 

Clergy gathering in Minneapolis, including Rev Audette, to bear witness to the community and say no to the cruelty of ICE. May their witness be heard and may they be safe.
Our community is preparing for a snowstorm. Please take safety precautions and reach out to each other, especially neighbors and friends that are living alone or may have health issues. Here is a resource from the Wren Fire Department with a helpful checklist.
The national scene continues to be a mess. I share with you this reflection that gave me hope and perspective. A reminder that we are not alone.

And Faith Formation at UU Avl persists amid the turmoil! Our Middle School family game night was fun! We are hoping to “grow” this event. Be on the lookout for the next game night. Two groups of people gather at tables, some standing, some sitting, as they play board games in Sandburg Hall

Kim hosted a breakfast for our families with children K-2 and we had thirty attendees. It was a joyful, playful time. A small group populated the UUAvl table at this year’s MLK Breakfast. It was good to be in community and be inspired to stay focused on justice.
