Crafting deeper and richer friendships and kinship is a vital tool in combatting the growing separation and erosion of social norms in our communities.

On October 19, 1959, Unitarians in the Coachella Valley gathered for the first time at the Palm Springs Chamber of Commerce office. Since then, this community has grown and thrived, through struggle and wandering in the desert, through ministers coming and going, through dreaming and hard work. And here we are, 65 years later, stronger than ever! Join us on this joyful day as we celebrate our history and our coming back together at the beginning of this church year and as we look together toward the future. And after the service, there will be birthday cake!!!

How do we act as leaders and allies in the fight for justice in a world that is pushing us further and further apart? When is it our duty to be bold and when do we know to step back and listen? We learn from Palm Springs Councilmember Grace Garner about how being raised at UU Fellowship of the Desert (later UUCOD) taught her how to use her position to respect, protect, and speak out for justice even when it isn’t easy.
