Rev. Mary Katherine Morn is president and CEO of the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee (UUSC), a nonprofit, nonsectarian organization advancing human rights around the world.  Her UUSC tenure began in June 2018. Previously Morn served as senior minister of the UU Congregation of Fairfax in Oakton, Va., and grew small, mid-size, and large congregations in Texas, Alabama, Washington, D.C., Georgia, and Virginia. She and her husband, John Rakestraw, the director of Boston College’s Center for Teaching Excellence, now live in the Boston area and have one adult son.

In a religious community, we hold that the promise of human progress rests in the promises we make to one another.  What are those promises? And how do Unitarian Universalists faithfully live into them?
