Speaker: Rev. Elizabeth Nguyen

Right Here

Scientist and writer Robin Wall Kimmerer talks about the concept of naturalization – that for those of us not indigenous to this land, we might become “naturalized” to it: Living on it without harming and in reciprocity. We’ll reflect on all that has happened on the land we’re on and lessons for now.

Heartland

Rev. Elizabeth Nguyen shares learnings from what is sometimes called the heartland, flyover country where legacies of both strong social justice organizing and oppressive politics live on and the future is being made and unmade each day. 

Safe in the Swamp

Where the water and the land meet. We’ll reflect on famous US swamps – real andmetaphorical – that have bred safety, innovation and protection in times of uncertainty and oppression. Video link to the sermon.
