“The World That Does Not Yet Exist” – Rev. Sabrina Trupia
What’s the difference between a hero and a role model? As we try to answer this question, we will also try to understand what it is that can give resilience to a community.
Featured musicians: Home Remedy: Melinda Monroe & Cindy Minnis; Songleader: Jan Chamberlin
About our guest speaker: Rev. Sabrina is a resident of Edwardsville IL, where they live with their spouse and daughter. They just concluded their ministry in Davenport, Iowa last month and have accepted the position of Minister of Congregational Life at First Unitarian Church in St. Louis.

“Reparenting: Inward Presence, Outward Compassion”
Eden Johnson
Richard Schwartz Ph.D. in “No Bad Parts” writes that the monomind, or the idea of a person as a single unified self, is actually a myth and instead suggests there’s many parts of the self that makes up a person. Eden shares how this idea can lead to the work of reparenting as a spiritual practice to fully embrace all sides of our internal world to find presence wherever we are, and stand up for what we believe in, no matter what conditions are present.
About our guest speaker: Eden Johnson, MDiv (he/they) is serving as the Ministerial Fellow at Metro East Unitarian Universalist in Glen Carbon, IL. Originally from Atlanta, GA, Eden moved to the Saint Louis area last fall where he lives with his partner and two cats. He enjoys crafting, hiking, and eating good vegetarian food with friends.
Each of us has worth and dignity, and that worth includes our gender and our sexuality. As Unitarian Universalists, we not only open our doors to people of all sexual orientations and gender identities, we value diversity of sexuality and gender and see it as a spiritual gift. We create inclusive religious communities and work for LGBTQ justice and equity as a core part of who we are. All of who you are is sacred. All of who you are is welcome.
