Livestreamed at 10:30 am.

Through live drag transformation and personal storytelling, Rev. Tasha Brownfield invites the congregation into a theology of embodiment, contradiction, and collective belonging. This sermon challenges binaries of sacred and profane, minister and performer, calling us to recognize the divine in all forms of becoming. It is not a performance to observe, but a shared act of presence and truth-telling. Together, we ask: What are we ready to reveal, and who are we ready to make room for?
