On October 13, we turn to the evolving theology of Unitarian Universalism. Just as trees deepen their roots to grow stronger, so does our faith. This week, we explore how mental health care becomes a spiritual practice—a way to live out our faith through compassion, listening, and presence. In caring for each other’s well-being, we embody the love that strengthens our community and nurtures the Beloved Community we are always striving to build. The election season challenges us to hold tight to these values, offering care to one another in moments of heightened tension, while remaining grounded in the principles that guide our faith.
Coming up at First Universalist
All in!
There’s a Place for You
On this day after the elections, there’s a place for you at First Universalist. Join us for a soft place to land, a community to care for you and each other, and the practices to help us hold it all. In song, in silence, in solidarity across difference, we’ll make space to simply be together, opening wide the doors of the church to the Twin Cities and beyond as we ground ourselves in mutual care and remember our commitments for the long haul.
While this service is oriented towards children, youth, and adults 12 and older—children of all ages are welcome, and so is the sound and joy and tears and play that comes with them.

“We thank you for coming. We thank you for returning. We thank you for spending time weaving a little community together. We believe that this has something to do with how the world lights on fire for love and justice and liberation. I’m pretty sure we’re right.” – Dr. Glen Thomas Rideout

The purpose of the Coming of Age (COA) retreat is to help build community within the group. The youth in COA are being asked to do a lot of deep reflection around what values they believe in, how they want to interact with the world, and what they hold to be truths for themselves at this stage of their lives.
At the retreat, there are several different physical and mental challenges that are only successful if everyone works together as a team.
In the video, it shows how once the entire group has successfully balanced on the platform, they need to sing a song while holding the right balance because if they shift slightly while singing and the platform hits the ground, then they have to start over again.
