“The Theology of Covenant:
What Does It Mean
for the Human/Animal Relationship?”
Rev. Monica Clark-Robinson
What does it mean to honor the interdependent web of existence when that web includes the animals with whom we share the Earth? Rev. Monica will be in the pulpit for this service about our covenantal relationship with the more-than-human world. How might Unitarian Universalists live more fully into values of care, justice and mutuality for all beings?

June 14 Homily Video
As we held our annual Pride Month worship service on June 14, 2026, the Rev. Monica Clark-Robinson's homily was "A Kinder Tomorrow." The growing acceptance of LGTBQ people resulted from an accumulation of many small acts and events over the years, she said, and she urged UUs to keep getting into "good trouble."
The homily begins at 6:31.
