Sunday, October 2 | Michael Servetus and Naming Our Truths | Rev. Gail Marriner
Brian Andreas reminds us that; "anyone can slay a dragon but try waking up every morning and loving the world all over again. That's what takes a real hero." This month we are considering courage and what it means to be courageous. October 2 opens with the story of Michael Servetus, a Renaissance theologian, scientist and humanist who was condemned as a heretic by Calvin because of his rejection of the Catholic church and the teachings of the Trinity, leading to his torture and execution in 1553. |

Sunday, October 9 | The Healing Power of Resiliency | Minister Kimi Floyd Reisch
Courage is a heart word according to Brene Brown. Courage can sustain us even when it gets hard. This week will consider the stories of the the mothers searching the road for their migrant children who disappeared on their journey toward the United States and the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women's project working to trace women and girls who have been disappearing from reservations across North America. In their stories, we find how deep resiliency must be embedded within us to sustain love and courage in times of uncertainty. |

Sunday, October 16 | The Courage to Be You | Rev. Gail Marriner
One of the most courageous things we can do is learn to accept who we are and be ourselves. National Coming Out Day is October 11, but the weeks between September 23 and October 31 are filled with other days dedicated to recognizing the many ways there are to be human. Author Rita Mae Brown says that when we conform to the expectations of the world, others might like us, but we also struggle to like ourselves. Courage means radical acceptance of our own identities in the same way we accept others. |

Sunday, October 23 | The Courage to Speak | Domestic Violence Awareness
The Domestic Violence Awareness group and the Men's Group from UU Santa Fe will help facilitate worship this week, highlighting the courage to survive and the courage to speak up to fight against domestic violence. Domestic violence affects people from all gender and sexual identities, racial and ethnicity, and economic statuses. We often think of home as a place of refuge, but when violence enters our homes that sanctuary is lost. |
Sunday, October 30 | The Courage to Remember | Rev. Gail Marriner
Between October 31 and November 2, many people of Mexican and Mexican American heritage celebrate Dia de los Muertos, Day of the Dead. This annual event allows family and friends to remember those who have gone before us into death. This Sunday, all are invited to come prepared to remember your ancestors - human or animal - and to place a memorial for them on an altar as you share your memory. Bring a picture or another small memento - you will be able to take them back home following worship.
