Rev. Dr. Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd And UUA Clergy Sexual Misconduct Cover-Up & Denial - What's The Connection?

According to this Yet Another Unitarian Universalist blog post of Rev. Daniel Harper, the Ministerial Fellowship Committee (MFC) and the Religious Education Credentialing Committee (RECC) of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) sent an email to him dated July 9th, 2025, that reads: 

“This email is to inform you of recent decisions of the UUA’s professional credentialing bodies. The Religious Education Credentialing Committee (RECC) has terminated the religious educator credentials of Gregory Carrow-Boyd. This determination was upheld by the Board of Review, upon appeal. The RECC was referred this case, following a decision by the Ministerial Fellowship Committee to remove Mr. Boyd from ministerial aspirant status because of conduct unbecoming of a minister, pursuant to UUMA Ethical Standard 13 – specifically sexual misconduct connected to consent, boundaries, and power dynamics. The MFC affirmed the findings of the thorough, independent investigation, which found a persistent pattern of these boundary violations and misconduct over many years.”

The First Unitarian Church of Honolulu has this to say about Rev. Dr. Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd, CRE–LL:

Rev. Dr. Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd, CRE–LL has served the First Unitarian Church of Honolulu since January 2023. He holds an EdD in organizational change and leadership from the University of Southern California (2022). He also has a BS in bilingual education from Boston University (2010), an MEd in teaching and curriculum (2011), and a certificate in college teaching (2013) from Pennsylvania State University. Rev. Dr. Greg is also a Unitarian Universalist leadership-level credentialed religious educator. His research interests include critical cultural studies, effective sex education design for Black teens, social learning theory, and racial justice education. Rev. Dr. Greg loves to dance and spend time with the special young people in his life. In his free time, he researches and writes religious education, racial justice, and sexuality education curricula.

According to the Universalist Unitarian Church of Riverside:

Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd is a religious educator and seminarian who studies at Claremont School of Theology. He serves on the Board of Trustees of our Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA). Also, professionally trained as a cook, Greg understands the importance of food in building community. Greg works as the Coordinator for More Than Sex-Ed, a Greater LA-based sexuality education collective that brings the UUA and United Church of Christ comprehensive sexuality education curriculum, Our Whole Lives, to schools, homeschool groups and the greater community.

According to this web page of the Inland Northwest Unitarian Universalist Community, Rev. Dr. Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd, CRE–LL also serves the Unitarian Universalist Association as a LREDA Good Officer and Religious Education Credentialing Program Mentor. Greg loves to dance and to spend time with the special young people in his life. In his free time, Greg conducts research about and writes religious education, racial justice, and sexuality education curricula.

This means that, in addition to being an ordained Unitarian Universalist minister and a credentialed UUA Religious Educator, the not so good Rev. Dr. Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd, CRE–LL was also a UUA Board Trustee in the not so distant past, a coordinator of the UUA and United Church of Christ comprehensive sexuality education curriculum, Our Whole Lives, and an LREDA Good Officer and Religious Education Credentialing Program Mentor.

According to this decade old Facebook post of the Neighborhood Unitarian Universalist "Church" in Pasadena California, Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd is "a lifelong U*U", whose term as a UUA Board Trustee began in June 2015. This means that Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd became a UUA Board Trustee a year after UUA Moderator Jim Key aka Risk Management consultant James "See NO Evil" Key minimized Unitarian Universalist clergy sexual misconduct in general, and brazenly lied about child sex abuse committed by pedophile*rapist UUA clergy such as Rev. Mack Wallace Mitchell et al in the "less than honest", and thus UUtterly worthless, UUA Board "official apology" for clergy sexual misconduct that he inappropriately inserted into the middle of his first Moderator's Report to a UUA GA in late June 2014. Gregory C. Carrow-Boyd may not have been involved in the creation of that UUA Board apology, but he was and still is complicit in the misinformation and lies in it. 

It's worth noting that the Religious Education Credentialing Committee's says, "The MFC affirmed the findings of the thorough, independent investigation, which found a persistent pattern of these boundary violations and misconduct over many years."

This leads me to wonder how many years is "many years", and just how "persistent" Gregory Carrow-Boyd was in his "persistent pattern of boundary violations". Needless to say, I can't help but wonder if these persistent boundary violations involved Gregory Carrow-Boyd spending time with "the special young people in his life".
