We live in a culture shaped by a Puritan past, in a society increasingly impacted by
puritanical efforts to claim ownership of the concept of holiness. In this message Amy will
reflect on the notion of purity and what it might mean to us as Unitarian Universalists.

Amy G. S. A. Brooks is a cisgender, queer, Australian-born immigrant to the United
States who loves a good cup of hot tea and hates mornings. She is a minister, and the
author of Another Scroll: Defiant Readings for Lectionary Year C. Most recently she has
been busy writing her second book and providing pulpit supply for progressive
congregations; both in person and in digital spaces.
Amy is deeply familiar with grief and trauma. She finds truth and meaning in the liminal
spaces where humanity encounters the Divine. She claims kinship with her wife, Laurie;
as well as their adult children, assorted members of their chosen family, and numerous
pets.
