Rainbow Action

Mission Statement

Rainbow Action Chalice
  • Provide a specific, visual, candid welcome to all those who come to First Church, especially LGBTs, their friends and supporters.
  • Continue to increase the inclusive posture of First Church throughout all its programs, committees, and affiliated organizations, so that LGBTs, as well as their friends and supporters, will continue to be safe and comfortable as members and friends of First Church.
  • Provide outreach to the community at large in the name of First Church (beyond the First Church campus and activities) by means of leadership, spokespersons, and presence.

Programs and Activities

First UU San Diego at Pride
​Outreach
  • Annual participation in the Pride Parade and Festival.
  • Attendance and support at the Worlds AIDS day celebration.
  • Join First UU Team for AIDS Walk/Run San Diego

Education

Transgender Inclusion in Congregations
FUUSD purchased a wonderful 6-part on-line course from the Transforming Hearts Collective that members can take for free. This is for individuals and groups who want to take their knowledge and skills to the next level in terms of trans identity and how to create congregations that are fully inclusive and affirming of the full breadth of gender diversity. Over six sessions, you will deeply explore the intersection of trans identity, spirituality, and faith community, and gain the grounding, context, and skills to transform yourself and your congregation. If you are interested in taking the course, contact Angela Fujii.

​Action
Support for all LGBTQI actions.
