Upcoming Services

August 7. Children are People Too
Service led by: David & Zed O'Connor
Every person has inherent worth and dignity. nd children are people too! We agree with both of these statements, but sometimes, we treat children differently in way that does not extend them the dignity they deserve. David and Zed will have a conversation about this, and share some different ways of thinking that are powerful for both people in an adult and child relationship.
Zed and David O'Connor are some of the founding members of Philly Agile Learning Community, an organization supporting self-directed learning spaces in Philadelphia, and have been involved with First Unitarian for about 5 years. Zed is an advocate for alternative education, enjoys drumming, gaming, acting, the outdoors, and spending time with their sister, Maddy. David serves as President of First Unitarian, and has been deeply involved in tech for creating hybrid worship here.
