In this service, Kate will discuss the spiritual practice of receiving what is offered and how this practice might inspire and nurture our social justice work.

Kate Plummer is a nurse, midwife, and chaplain-in-training who is discerning a call to Unitarian Universalist ministry. She worked at the Vermont State Hospital right up until it flooded during Tropical Storm Irene, and now sees patients at Planned Parenthood health centers in northern Vermont. She is mother to an adult daughter, and daughter to elder parents, and is seeking to respond as well as she can to this year’s UU call to dismantle intersectional white supremacy.

This service is a chance to reflect on what keeps us closed off from connecting with others who are different from us. What are the “mechanics” of acceptance, and how is spiritual growth inherent in acceptance.
