Are you a UU who voted your values? Let's see it! 🙌

Our Unitarian Universalist values don't just live in our congregations. We bring them out into the world, into our communities, and yes, into the voting booth.

Every election is an opportunity to make our voices heard and put our values into action. Whether you voted early, mailed in your ballot, or headed to the polls today, thank you for showing up and participating in our democracy.

Share this graphic on your page and show your friends and family that UU voters are showing up!

Take care of yourself today! ❤️

Beloveds, as the midterm elections here in the U.S. draw near, I know that many of us are carrying deep worry and uncertainty. For many, these elections are the culmination of weeks and months of faithful organizing: knocking on doors and talking with neighbors, driving community members to the polls, and supporting the electoral process at voting sites. I am grateful to the UUA’s Organizing and Strategy Team and to all of you who are sharing your own values-based positions on issues and helping to get out the vote.

This is deeply faithful work because the promise of democracy lives in the collective whole and is made manifest through our actions and our care for one another. Democracy is made real through our practices – every time we work together for the common good, we build new relationships with trust, empathy, and humility. We the people are the democracy; it lives in our commitments to one another, and we make this powerful idea real when we live our values and take action together in community.

Unitarian Universalism is a faith of courage, of resilience, and of moral witness. No matter the outcome of any particular electoral race or ballot measure this year, our work will continue: we will resist fascism in all its forms, we will protect our communities, we will care for one another, and we will build a future where all people can thrive. Hold fast to one another in the coming days, beloveds, and we will meet this moment courageously, together.

Tonight and tomorrow we honor Samhain, the turning of the wheel when the veil between worlds grows thin. More than a night of costumes and sweets, Samhain is a sacred time to commune with our ancestors — to feel their presence in our bones, in the earth beneath our feet, in the glow of the moon and the quiet of the night.

Light a candle, set a place at your table, share a bit of food, or place a photo nearby. Honor those who walked before you, who still whisper wisdom and love through memory and intuition.

If you feel called, you are invited to share a memory, a name, or a piece of wisdom once given here in the comments — weaving your remembrance into our shared circle of love and gratitude.

Blessed be.
