Commit to Serve and Learn in an Affected Community
Organize a group in your congregation to participate in a service and learning program with a community affected by climate change

One option for congregational faith-based service and learning trips is the Unitarian Universalist College of Social Justice (UUCSJ), which offers experiential learning programs that help people faith and conscience cross boundaries, gain insight, and imagine new ways to bring their faith together with their yearning to make a difference in the world. UUCSJ programs offer participants intensive engagement with justice work along with the tools they need to bring the experience home again.

Congregations and communities are preparing for the 400th anniversary of the “Mayflower” voyage. Many of the congregations that were established by Pilgrims and Puritans – including the famous church in Plymouth – are now Unitarian Universalist churches…… Although I’m now an environmental justice minister in Florida, I continue to work with the Ballou Channing District and with other groups that want a time of truth and reconciliation for the next 5-6 years. We’re concerned about Native Americans and we’re concerned about environmental justice. We’ve asked the General Assembly to respond to the “Mayflower” anniversary in appropriate ways.
