Happy National Standing on the Side of Love Day!
It was a grand experiment: 30 Days of Love. And we have arrived!
Starting with Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, we embarked on a journey to discover our Story of Self, Story of Us, and Story of Now. Today — National Standing on the Side of Love Day, where we re-imagine Valentine’s Day as a social justice holiday of love and acceptance for all people – we are taking action for equality across the country. Stay tuned later this week to see all the ways in which we honored courageous love, examined our stories of us and now, and engaged in public witness.
On behalf of all of us at the Standing on the Side of Love Campaign, please accept a hearty Thank You!

Welcome to THIRTY DAYS OF LOVE, beginning Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and culminating with Valentine’s Day! THIRTY DAYS OF LOVE is a collective visioning process about making sense of the present moment, and what we are called to do. We aim to accomplish this through self-reflection, active listening, sharing personal and community stories, and celebrating our lives and our heroes for their courageous love.
THIRTY DAYS OF LOVE offers daily, direct actions for love, and the calendar is a template to guide you through a meaningful THIRTY DAYS. But your participation is envisioned as a process, not an event.
While there is great power in collective action, the beauty of Standing on the Side of Love is its “open source” spirit, so bring your own ideas, actions, and traditions with you for this journey.

Stand for the “Beloved Community.”
Speaking of love, I love being a UU.
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.
