On Sunday, April 7th, you may join us at 11 AM for “The Lure to Interdependency Away from Individualism” with Rev. Winnie Gordon.

“In the world we occupy, how do we let go of our desire for independence and individualism to recognize the connectivity of everything and everyone? Can we accept we need to change our intentions to bring beloved community?”

The theme for April is Interdependence.

Rev. Winnie Gordon (pronouns she/her) identifies as from the Black British Diaspora, mother to one, and a Minister in the Unitarian faith serving the Birmingham Unitarian New Meeting Congregation since 2014. Winnie is also a Tutor/ Assessor for Unitarian College. Her involvement in the wider Unitarian movement includes several occasions as Summer School co-facilitator and theme speaker; serving on the Unitarian College Academic Board; team member of the Worship Studies Course, and is in her final year as Co-President of the Unitarian Ministerial Fellowship.

Before entering ministry Winnie worked as a Lecturer at FE Colleges. She also lived in America where she undertook various positions including at Hennepin Technical College and Minnesota Correctional Facility. Winnie has a BA in Individualized Studies focused on Law and minor in Criminal Justice from Metropolitan State University, and a Master of Research Degree (Theology) investigating the inclusivity of People of Colour in UK Unitarianism from Newman University.  She is also involved with a local Birmingham charity, Ladywood Community Project, which aids families experiencing financial hardship and poverty. In her spare time, she loves to read, enjoys life sculpture classes, hand-building ceramics, and learning to throw pots. Winnie believes learning is life-long and so continues to explore faith, worship practices, and justice issues. 

These services will be offered in person (AND ON ZOOM) at 11 AM.
