Peace and Justice Coalition
Mission of the Peace and Justice Coalition:
"We are a liberal religious community seeking trans-formation
in our hearts, our homes, our community and our world. We come together
to create a spiritual community that nurtures and inspires us as
we search for meaning in our lives, take responsibility for helping
to solve the problems of our community, promote social and economic
justice, furthering our work to dismantle racism, homophobia, and
all forms of oppression, respect the beauty and mystery of nature
by actively preserving our environment. We are Unitarian Universalists,
building upon our heritage as advocates for the rights and dignity
of all."
All members of our UU community will have the opportunity to participate in our "Walk the Walk" survey in early February. Within the framework of our shared commitment to the broad UUCM mission, we will be working together over the coming months to agree and set a robust agenda to shape our focus for social action - our Walk the Walk agenda for change. Coinciding with our February Focus month, everyone will have the opportunity to complete a survey so that we can set our new agenda based upon the combined input of our congregation. Importantly, the results will provide a working action agenda blueprint for our special follow-up congregational workshop service in March. This is an exciting opportunity for all of us to become involved in clarifying just how we can more fully participate in putting our values into action. Please be on the lookout for the survey. If you have any questions or comments, please contact Francesca Elms or Thom Kennon.
For more information, please contact Francesca Elms, Chair, P&J Coalition.
