UUMFE Seeks New Board MembersUU Ministry For Earth has OPEN POSITIONS on our Board of Directors! These are individuals who help steer the organization forward and ensure the strategic outlook is sound. We need all sorts of expertise, such as general non-profit or business management, climate justice experience and know-how, HR experience, finance or bookkeeping backgrounds! Here is a link to learn more, and feel free to reach out to Board Chair Rev. Lauren Levwood even if you are unsure.
Serving on a Board is a great way to incorporate UU values into your life, including meeting UUs from across the country. Plus, it always feels good to learn new skills that you can use to contribute to your community!

In-Person Event: UU Climate Justice Revival Meditation Space
Open June 18–22 from 8am–5pm
In person at the Hilton Baltimore Inner Harbor, Stone Room (401 W Pratt St.)
In these times of crisis, devastation, and uncertainty, it is an act of radical (root) love to take care of each other. If you are feeling grief, rage, hope, gratitude, curiosity, or numbness, the UU Climate Revival Planning Team welcomes you into the Climate Justice Healing & Art Space. All General Assembly attendees are invited to engage in the self-directed offerings for reflection and renewal—including a collaborative altar, guided meditations shaped by this year’s winning Climate Revival Art submissions, and sensory offerings for a little bit of nature indoors. In addition, mornings will include a facilitated somatic exercise (8:30am–9:00am), and evenings will feature a song sharing circle or guided meditation (6:00pm–6:30pm). This space is our gift to you and to each other—we hope you take some time to practice the care, rest, and connection that is essential for our resilience. View this event on UU Climate Justice. Please register to attend General Assembly to join us.
