In May 2004, Heritage Universalist Unitarian Church received recognition as a UUA Welcoming Congregation. This designation indicates that Heritage has completed the UUA program to become intentionally more inclusive of bisexual, gay, lesbian, and/or transgender people. Once Welcoming Congregation designation was achieved, a chapter of Interweave was established at Heritage.
Interweave is a membership organization affiliated with the Unitarian Universalist Association. It is dedicated to the spiritual, political, and social well-being of Unitarian Universalists who are confronting oppression as lesbians, gay men, bisexual persons, transgender persons, and heterosexual allies. It celebrates the culture and lives of its members.
Interweave membership is open to all interested UUs of any sexual or affectional orientation. The group meets monthly on the second Wednesday of the month, with a potluck open to interested congregants. They also hold a monthly movie night every third Friday of the month, screening a movie that deals with gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender issues. |
