Come find out why women are dressing up in white bonnets and red dresses at protests across the country! The Union book group will be diving into Margaret Atwood’s novel The Handmaid’s Tale, as well as Season 1 of the recent Hulu adaptation; feel free to engage with one or both versions before coming. We will explore how and why this dystopic tale has recently become such a cultural flashpoint, looking at such themes as totalitarianism, religious fundamentalism, racial representation and of course feminism.

There are more than 2000 scripture verses that speak of poverty and injustice. How does this connect to your story? At the center of Jesus' ministry is the radical empowerment of vulnerable people groups. We want to gather and discuss how Jesus' call to discipleship is also a call to disruption. In what ways are your heart and hands being moved to respond? What is Jesus calling you to "come and see"?

We know there are so many stories of engagement and hope in the Union community but we can often feel alone, isolated and defeated.  Join us for a Roundtable discussion on May 20th to learn and imagine together about how we can continue to be a part of God's work of "loosening the bonds of injustice"  (Isaiah 58:6).

Each week we'll begin with a simple meal & conversation and then entering into a shared time of listening to a Gospel text. In a consistent, committed small group for the 4 weeks, we will share what we noticed, reflect further on how God might be inviting us through this story, listen deeply to one another, pray silently for one another and offer one another what we notice in our listening. Previous participants describe Listening Groups as a well-worth the investment of time.
