Lunch and Learn: What is a Reproductive Freedom Congregation?

  • UUMC - Fellowship Hall 2409 Guadalupe Street Austin, TX, 78705 United States (map)

Join Shan Saffer from Texas Freedom Network for a Lunch & Learn on what it means to be a Reproductive Freedom Congregation. Over the last year, members of the UUMC Church Council and staff have engaged in conversations about the possibility of affiliating with Texas Freedom Network's "Reproductive Freedom Congregation” program. We are in the beginning stages of exploring such an affiliation and this is a time of learning and discernment. Come to learn more. Wanting to ensure this is a safe space for all with regard to delicate subject matters, we come with our curious questions as well as a spirit of respect for others and the range of tender experiences this subject matter encompasses. You can learn more about Reproductive Freedom Congregations on the Just Texas website.
