Alphabet SoUUp
\nFirst Thursdays, 6:00-8:00pm, Fell Room
\nBring a snack to share if you like.<\/p>\n
We\u2019re starting a new group! Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, queer, intersex, asexual, agender, and aromantic folx ages 18 and over are invited to gather each month on the 1st Thursday.<\/p>\n
This group is by and for Queer people, and we hope that Queer and Questioning UUs will join in! Our non-Queer allies are warmly encouraged to share this invitation with LGBTQIA+ UUs but asked not to attend. This isn\u2019t meant to exclude allies but to allow a secure & safe space for Queer folk to build community & organize intentionally with other Queer folk.<\/p>\n
What will we be doing? We\u2019re not sure yet. We\u2019re prioritizing building community in a safe and accessible environment. Hosting duties will rotate among participants.<\/p>\n
Email (LRE@uubn.org) or text (309.531.2594) Terina to be added to the update list. Let her know if there\u2019s something that would help you participate (including childcare).<\/p>\n
Because this is a church group, participants agree to the church\u2019s covenant (https:\/\/uubn.org\/wp\/mission-statement\/) and to follow the process for right relations when covenant is broken (pg 61 https:\/\/uubn.org\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/UUBN-Policies-Procedures-Handbook-Final-01.15.25-Google-Docs.pdf).<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"alphabet-souup-3","image":false,"all_day":false,"start_date":"2028-03-02 18:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2028","month":"03","day":"02","hour":"18","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2028-03-02 20:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2028","month":"03","day":"02","hour":"20","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2028-03-03 00:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2028","month":"03","day":"03","hour":"00","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2028-03-03 02:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2028","month":"03","day":"03","hour":"02","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"America\/Chicago","timezone_abbr":"CST","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"$","currency_code":"USD","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[],"tags":[],"venue":{"id":2868,"author":"3","status":"publish","date":"2022-03-03 16:56:02","date_utc":"2022-03-03 22:56:02","modified":"2025-10-20 13:40:04","modified_utc":"2025-10-20 18:40:04","url":"https:\/\/uubn.org\/wp\/venue\/unitarian-universalist-church-of-bloomington-normal\/","venue":"Unitarian Universalist Church of Bloomington-Normal","slug":"unitarian-universalist-church-of-bloomington-normal","address":"1613 East Emerson Street","city":"Bloomington","country":"United States","state":"IL","zip":"61701","stateprovince":"IL","json_ld":{"@type":"Place","name":"Unitarian Universalist Church of Bloomington-Normal","description":"","url":"https:\/\/uubn.org\/wp\/venue\/unitarian-universalist-church-of-bloomington-normal\/","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","streetAddress":"1613 East Emerson Street","addressLocality":"Bloomington","addressRegion":"IL","postalCode":"61701","addressCountry":"United States"},"telephone":"","sameAs":""},"show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"global_id":"uubn.org\/wp?id=2868","global_id_lineage":["uubn.org\/wp?id=2868"]},"organizer":[{"id":3007,"author":"4","status":"publish","date":"2017-04-16 11:30:19","date_utc":"2017-04-16 16:30:19","modified":"2017-04-16 11:30:19","modified_utc":"2017-04-16 16:30:19","url":"https:\/\/uubn.org\/wp\/organizer\/uubn-office\/","organizer":"UUBN Office","slug":"uubn-office","phone":"309-828-0235","email":"office@uubn.org","json_ld":{"@type":"Person","name":"UUBN Office","description":"","url":"","telephone":"309-828-0235","email":"office@uubn.org","sameAs":""},"global_id":"uubn.org\/wp?id=3007","global_id_lineage":["uubn.org\/wp?id=3007"]}],"custom_fields":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Alphabet SoUUp","description":"<p>Alphabet SoUUp First Thursdays, 6:00-8:00pm, Fell Room Bring a snack to share if you like.
