The social sisterhood aims to create a virtual space for church women to connect bi-monthly, transcending geographical boundaries. Participants join from various locations, engaging in heartfelt conversations about their lives. There’s no set agenda, there’s no membership. It’s an inclusive forum for women to connect, fostering dialogue, and sharing ideas—ideal for newcomers or long-time members seeking meaningful connections within the church community.
We will meet virtually in Zoom Room 1. Please click here to connect.

Our new UU Shared Values state that Love is at the center of who we say we are and how we show up in the world. What does that mean for us, and how are we challenged to live into this statement? Join our guest UU minister, Rev. Ruth Rinehart, for an exploration of Love at the center.

Bio: Rev. Ruth Rinehart is a Unitarian Universalist minister focused on building a beloved community for long-term healing and recovery from addictions. Rev. Ruth believes in the healing nature of connection, person to person, in real-time, face-to-face. She is passionate about the covenantal nature of Unitarian Universalism, a religion without a creed. At the core of our covenant is Right Relationship, a commitment to increase our conflict competency, and to stay in a relationship even when the going gets tough. Living in Golden, CO, with her husband Dave, Ruth enjoys their suburban permaculture food production, along with bees and chickens. Her daughter Lora lives in Texas, and her other daughter Amelia is exploring the world at large.
