Creating Hope in Hard Times

 

Seven Suggestions for Creating Hope in Challenging Times

​

Copyright April 16, 2025 by Rev. Amy Kindred

​​

  1. Ask younger or newer folks who agree to accept a leadership position how you can support them and the decisions they will need to make to address pressing issues. This means avoiding giving unsolicited advice. For example, in a UU congregation, a person who had been the Chair of the Caring Team for a long time called me, the minister, and said, “We have a new lead. Alex will be wonderful.” Two days later, I got a text from Alex who said, “I quit.” When I spoke with Alex in-person about the decision to withdraw from the role, they said, “I was told by the former chair I have to bring a gift anytime I visit someone. First of all, I don’t have the means to buy gifts for people and second, that is not my style.” Remember, ask, “How may I support you in this new role?” If they ask you for ideas, share them as ideas not as requirements.

Vandals repeatedly used spray paint to deface a Black Lives Matter banner at a Clearwater church last year.

 

The church tried to remove “x”s that crossed out the statement, but after multiple incidents, they were determined to find a more permanent solution.

​

So on Sunday, the Unitarian Universalists of Clearwater unveiled a protected sign its leaders and members hope is less susceptible to damage. In this time of increased political tension, they feel the message needs to be heard now more than ever.
