Social Justice Committee

"Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."
--Howard Thurman

The Social Justice Committee seeks to promote equality, justice, and compassion in the local community and the world through education, advocacy, and activism.

Recent committee activities include hosting a social justice workshop for district youth, co-sponsoring a peace meditation with the Heartland Unitarian Universalist Church of Indianapolis, raising funds for CROP Walk for Hunger, sponsoring a production of “The Vagina Monologues,” marching in the Indianapolis Pride Parade and hosting a community conversation titled “Divine Action: Living Like You Mean It” with environmental activist, Julia Butterfly Hill and Seane Corn, a yoga instructor working with YouthAids. Recent monetary donations were made to Bethlehem House, The Martin Luther King Community Center, Horizon House, The Indiana Youth Group, and The Julian Center.

Join us the first Sunday of each month at noon in the Cottage library on the church campus. Visitors and families are welcome! For more information, please contact Susanne Hinson-Rieger at 317-418-1679 or susannehinson@gmail.com or check out our blog at http://uuisocialjustice.blogspot.com/
