In the 2014 UUA meditation manual, Marta I. ValentÃn reflects on the spiritual dimensions of her intersecting identities as a Latina, lesbian, feminist, God-worshipping Unitarian Universalist minister. With candor and insight, she probes what is universal in her own very particular history and what it means to strive for beloved community in the face of marginalization and cultural misunderstanding.
Marta I. ValentÃn is the minister at First Church Unitarian in Littleton, Massachusetts. In her first settled ministry, she served at First Unitarian Universalist Church of New Orleans when Hurricane Katrina hit. She is also a published poet and a drummer. She is bilingual and bicultural with a Puerto Rican heritage.
