April 1, 2023Join Rev. Bob LaVallee to engage with and name your UU theology and identity. What do you believe? Why do you believe it? Creating Theology Together is a new curriculum that recognizes the value of cultivating our individual theologies and credos—as celebrated in the “Building Your Own Theology” curriculum—but extends beyond the individual to clarify what shared values and beliefs ground our larger faith community. Moreover, what values and beliefs ground our faithful actions in the larger world? Course dates and times are below. To register, email Rev. Bob at blavallee@uuabq.org.

April 2, 2023Our twice-monthly meetings are addiction support meetings where someone provides a topic or reading, and we share together. We do not focus on one specific addiction—many are represented. Our focus on being together is support and recovery. Expectations for those who attend extend from just listening to participating fully. We cherish honesty and openness, confidentiality, integrity, and compassion.
If you are looking for support, join us at 12:30 pm right after services.

This group is geared towards those ages 18-35 years old and anyone who feels being in this group would deepen their belonging at First U.
