The Inn: Sheltering the Holy
This year, it seemed appropriate to address how many of our Holy siblings struggle to find shelter, just as the Holy family did. Many of God’s children struggle to provide housing, food, and safety for their families. People have been furloughed or fired from jobs. Many of our immigrant siblings live in fear, rather than being welcomed and embraced. During this Advent season, what is the role of the church in providing hope, peace, joy, and love to ALL of God’s children?
Solar for Justice Community Grants
First Congregational UCC installed a large solar array on the roof that provides about 65% of the electricity for church activities. The solar energy project grew from Congregational discussions around justice and caring for creation. The conversations focused on environmental justice, recognizing that environmental harm, and the benefits from many environmental programs, are not distributed equitably.
The solar panels reduce the Church’s carbon footprint and save on utility costs. We are pleased to share that the yearly savings are being distributed to the community in the form of Solar for Justice grants. Learn more.
