"The Search for Virtue in Religion and Film" A Summer Sermon Series (One Service at 1030 a.m.) The guest speaker for the entire month is The Rev. Silvio Nardoni, a member of this congregation. He is a graduate of the University of Redlands, the University of Michigan Law School, and received his Master of Divinity degree from Harvard Divinity School in 1981. He currently practices law in Los Angeles, emphasizing litigation, including elder abuse cases. Mr. Nardoni was the minister at Emerson Unitarian Church in Canoga Park from 1981 to 1985, and he served on the headquarters staff of the Unitarian Universalist Association in the Department of Ministry from 1985 to 1988. He currently serves as a member of the Ministerial Board of Review of the UUA. Currently, he lives in the Silverlake district of Los Angeles, with his wife, Wanda Teays, and an assortment of fur-bearing and feathered creatures (two cats and a bird).

"Transgender Day of Visibility" (Online Service)
Today we celebrate transgender people everywhere and explore the beautiful diversity of gender identities and expressions in our world. We also mark Passover and Palm Sunday and consider what our Jewish and Christian heritages really teach about gender and queerness. Don’t forget your Bibles this Sunday!
The Transgender Pride Flag was first displayed in 2000. Designer Monica Helms describes it: “The light blue is the traditional color for baby boys, pink is for girls, and the white in the middle is for those who are transitioning, those who feel they have a neutral gender or no gender, and those who are intersexed. The pattern is such that no matter which way you fly it, it will always be correct. This symbolizes us trying to find correctness in our own lives.” For some UU perspectives, consider the resources on a page that begins with “10 Ways to Be More Welcoming and Inclusive of Transgender People.”
