Small Things, Great Love

May 31, 2026

St. Teresa of Calcutta said, “Don't look for big things, just do small things with great love.” Over the past few months, we have heard about the values we share as Unitarian Universalists: justice, equity, transformation, pluralism, interdependence, and generosity. They sound so big and grand, yet all of them are connected to, and expressions of, something very personal, even intimate: love. How does putting love into practice look in our daily lives?

Relatable?

UUs are very good at holding complexity.

We can affirm many ways to move through the world, connect to the sacred, or sing a beloved hymn… and still hold firm to the precise dishwasher loading diagram everyone should follow when using the congregation’s kitchen. 😄

That’s the beauty of our shared UU community life: we may not have perfect agreement, but we can be our best imperfect selves practicing how to live together with care, intention, and respect for one another.
