ICE is not invulnerable. The Avelo Airlines win proves what happens when we refuse inevitability and fight together.

Today, UUA President Rev. Sofía Betancourt, PhD was arrested in Washington, D.C., alongside other people of faith while protesting the Department of Homeland Security budget.

Rev. Betancourt joined religious leaders at the U.S. Capitol Complex to oppose a budget that continues to fund ICE and Customs and Border Protection—agencies responsible for ongoing harm and violence in our communities. As she said earlier today, there is no moral justification for a budget that deepens this damage.

This is a developing story. Read more about today’s action and Rev. Betancourt’s remarks—link to the article in the comments.

Rev. Erica Baron of the Unitarian Universalist Association will launch our process to call a settled minister. Her important message will address the significance of the congregation calling Rev. Ariel to be our settled minister.

The choir will sing and our youth will have time with their peers and teachers in their classrooms, as usual.

Members and friends are encouraged to attend this Sunday.

For many of us, 2025 felt like the world — and often our lives — were on fire. 🔥

As we enter a new year, we hold this truth from Sara Eileen LaWall - that from fear, doubt, and hate, we rise with courage, hope, wonder, and love. 💛✨

Out of the flames, we rise and meet 2026 together. 🌅✨
