November’s worship theme is Belonging. To belong can be a position of some ambivalence. Often a comfort and sometimes a curse. Where are we meant to fit? To whom are we suited for? Are we meant to be neatly socially classified? Are we cosmically the property of anyone but ourselves? In this Autumn month in which we honor the harvest season, National Indigenous People Heritage Month, and the Thanksgiving holiday, and are striving to gather in generous Beloved Community in times fraught with polarization and global strife… let us commune each Sunday in a way in which we can all belong and be longing together. 

This first Sunday we will inaugurate a new liturgical tradition with UU Marin’s first Land Acknowledgement honoring the Coast Miwok. Our nation’s history is complicated and often tragic,  but our communities and our social location are inextricable from these events. The only way for us to responsibly search for truth and meaning together is to acknowledge the difficult past so we might work toward a brighter collective future.
