Boundless Welcome: The Heart of Our Inclusive Faith
Unitarian Universalism celebrates diversity as a cornerstone of our shared faith. Today, we will explore how our inclusive principles and values invite us to honor every person’s worth and dignity, build bridges across difference, and create a spiritual home for all. Together, we’ll reflect on the transformative power of truly embracing one another and welcoming all.

Jon Sachs:
Jon has a wonderful career as a high school music teacher in nearby Camarillo. He recently celebrated his 28th wedding anniversary to his wife, Amy and has three children in college. In addition to playing the guitar and French horn, he enjoys running, hiking, and going to the gym. When he’s not doing that, he’s probably lost down a rabbit hole online studying religion, philosophy, politics, or cat videos.
