Gay In Augusta

February 14 is “National Standing on the Side of Love Day“, what the sponsors are calling “Valentine’s Day Re-imagined.” Sponsored by the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA), Standing on the Side Of Love is promoting events across the country.

A local event will be at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Augusta at 3:00 p.m. The event is a UUCA “public advocacy campaign promoting respect for the inherent worth and dignity of every person.” The celebration will feature a free screening of the documentary ‘Lesbian Grandmothers from Mars.’ You are invited to join UUCA at 3501 Walton Way Ext and “celebrate a Valentine’s Day re-imagined. Love is about more than romance, greeting cards and chocolates. We want to celebrate love’s power to transform communities!”

The Unitarian Universalist Church has long been an LGBT ally, but this Sunday a local church is leaving no doubt that there are indeed allies in the CSRA. On Sunday, October 11th (National Coming Out Day), the Unitarian Universalist Church of Augusta will focus their church service on the importance of this day.

“Come Out, Come Out Whoever You Are” The Reverend Margaret L. Beard

October 11th is “National Coming Out Day” which is an internationally-observed civil awareness day for coming out and discussion about gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) issues. Find out more about the history of this day, the national and local situation and why “fullness of being” and full equality are religious issues.

Service is at 11:00am
