The Arabic word sumud or sumood is often Join us on Sunday with guest speaker, Basil Sabbah, for our service “Sumud: Resisting in a World That Wants Us to Look Away.” The Arabic word sumud or sumood is often described as steadfastness, but it is more accurately understood as a combination of steadfastness, hope, and resistance: the refusal to disappear, the courage to remain rooted, and the discipline of choosing dignity over despair. Sumud becomes both a distinctly Palestinian witness and a universal calling, visible wherever people persist with courage against a strange new world. Basil connects it to faith, community, and antiwar conscience, showing that sumud is not passive suffering but active perseverance: the kind of hope that stands firm, tells the truth, and resists injustice without surrendering compassion. We warmly invite you to join us in person or, if you prefer, participate online. We look forward to seeing you there! Our service streams to Youtube and Zoom (meeting ID is 466-677-668 and the password is 454623). Join us for coffee in the Community Room after both services. First Unitarian Society of Denver 1400 N.

An Original Jukebox Musical
Written by Erica Trisler & Alisha Bashaw
What begins as one vulnerable song becomes a movement.
In a divided An Original Jukebox Musical Written by Erica Trisler & Alisha Bashaw What begins as one vulnerable song becomes a movement. In a divided world overwhelmed by noise, fear, and distraction, a teenager dares to share something honest. What spreads next isn’t chaos — it’s connection. People begin listening. Talking. Feeling. But not everyone is ready for that kind of change. Featuring powerful anthems from artists like Billy Joel, Kenny Loggins, Justin Timberlake, Simon and Garfunkel, Taylor Swift, and more, Ripple is a high-energy, heart-forward musical about empathy, courage, and the light that gets in when we open ourselves to one another. Starring actors, singers, and dancers from within and outside of First Unitarian and children from Denver Children’s Choir Created and performed by Souul Stage — Denver’s inclusive, all-ages community theatre company — this production celebrates the beauty of people showing up exactly as they are.
