“Lessons from Home, Get the Bandages”
During this month of February we acknowledge African-American history. For some of us that history is about home, too. We will explore that beautiful, painful, existentialist wonder of the lessons from home.
Rev. Duncan Teague and faithful, hardworking friends dreamed of and planted the Abundant Love Unitarian Universalist Congregation in the West End community of Atlanta in 2018. Abundant LUUv is committed the work of healing communities in both the UU and Black church traditions.
The Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University also employs Rev. Teague in its global health department, where he assists in faith-based projects around HIV/AIDS anti-stigma work.
He is an Affiliated Community Minister for the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Atlanta. He has served on the UU Ministers’ Association’s Committee on Anti-Racism, Anti-Oppression, and Multiculturalism.
His work has been honored in proclamations by the Atlanta City Council. In addition, House Resolution #290 of the Georgia General Assembly honored Rev. Teague for his 38 years of HIV/AIDS and community work.
Rev. Teague resides in Decatur with his husband, David Thurman, a retired CDC researcher. They celebrate 30 years together and 20 years married.
