Rev. Darcy Baxter
Minister<\/small><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

revdarcybaxter@protonmail.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rev. Darcy has been with our congregation since August 2014. A third-generation Unitarian Universalist, Rev. Darcy is deeply grounded in UU traditions and theologies and believes UUs have an important role to play in co-creating radical love, justice, and hope in this world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Rev. Darcy, ministry is that which facilitates and nurtures the unfurling of our most authentic selves; that which cultivates deepening connection to where we come from and where our values guide us to go; and that which bears witness to and helps alleviate injustice and tragedy. In ministry, Rev. Darcy hopes for a lot of storytelling and story sharing, coming from within our congregation and from beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An important part of Rev. Darcy’s ministry is building bridges between liberal religious and reproductive justice communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In her free time, she loves to dance, read fiction, muse about the world with her wife, and take her dog, Benny, on long walks through Modesto orchards. She loves strong coffee, fierce rhythm, feminist process theologies, and sassy, compassionate people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rev. Darcy writes weekly reflections that you can read here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n
