Building Belonging Without Othering: Bringing Our Whole Selves

September 14 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

“Othering” contributes to social inequality and marginality, as exists in caste systems. In contrast, authentic “Belonging” invites the whole selves of others to be recognized and honored. Let’s reflect on habits of “othering,” many perhaps unconscious, you may have and how these habits diminish a welcome invitation to belonging. Genuine belonging means bringing our whole selves to connections. This service will include a Commissioning of the BVUUF ministerial search team. Led by Rev. Barbara Coeyman with Service Associate Eric Williams.
