In today’s world, being a Welcoming Congregation requires more than simply opening our doors. We are at a crucial turning point — will we live into our commitment to be a home for all those who need Unitarian Universalism? Doing so will require a welcome that transforms our hearts, our congregation, and ultimately our world. In this service guest speaker Zr. Alex Kapitan, a queer and trans UU leader, will preach on what it will take to embody this sort of welcome — a radical welcome that can ultimately transform us all.
Zr. Alex Kapitan is a lay community minister, educator, editor, consultant, and activist. A trans and queer lifelong Unitarian Universalist, Alex does interfaith LGBTQ work and supports congregations in becoming places of radical welcome for all. Ze is the co-founder of the Transforming Hearts Collective, the co-leader of the program Trans Inclusion in Congregations, and the founder of Radical Copyeditor, an anti-oppressive language project.
