Learning Forum: The Squatters Dilemma - Global Housing Lessons for Local Housing Problems
2026-10-05 19:00 - 20:00
From tent clusters in parks, to RVs along roadsides, to boarded-up but lived-in houses, squatting, in its various forms, has become more visible in recent years. These living arrangements often spark fears about public health and safety, which in turn have led to new laws that ban camping in public spaces.
In this talk, explore how communities around the world have confronted squatting — sometimes successfully, sometimes not. What lessons can we bring home to Washington? And how might we use them to build stronger communities while respecting others’ experiences?
Joseph Lenti is a professor of history at Eastern Washington University. The author of two books and numerous articles, his research has grappled with subjects including labor unions in Mexico, land conservation expropriation in Costa Rica, and trends of dispossession and squatting in Latin America, past and present.

MUCC's 30th Anniversary of Being Open and Affirming
2027-05-30 10:00 - 11:00
June of 2026 marks a very big anniversary in the life of the MUCC community. It is the 30th anniversary of becoming an Open and Affirming church within the UCC. That prophetic decision by MUCC so long ago marked a public commitment to welcoming LGBTQ+ individuals into the full life, ministry, and leadership of the MUCC beloved community. It highlighted a commitment to reversing historical religious discrimination by fostering an inclusive community and celebrating diverse sexual orientations and gender identities.
Being an Open and Affirming Church is critical in that it serves as a necessary, public declaration of welcome to counteract past harm, ensuring LGBTQ+ individuals are celebrated, not tolerated. Few churches were Open and Affirming back in 1996 when MUCC made this decision and it was a brave and prophetic decision to stand on the side of radical and inclusive love. And we will celebrate that decision and that love during worship on Sunday, June 28th!
If you have memories from that time please touch base with Pastor Marci!
