Green Sanctuary is the name of the AUUF committee addressing environmental issues, and the name of a program first started some years ago by the UU Ministry for the Earth (uuministryforearth.org but recently adopted by the national Unitarian Universalist Association and now administered through their office (uua.org). AUUF is a congregational member of the UU Ministry for Earth, and all members and friends are urged to consider becoming personally involved in this ministry (go to their website above). Basically, the Green Sanctuary program calls UU congregations to:
- build awareness of societal environmental issues among UUs;
- generate commitment for personal lifestyle changes;
- motivate UUs to community action on environmental issues;
- build a connection between spiritual practice and environmental consciousness; and
- build awareness of and rectify environmental injustices.
Over the last several years, AUUF has accomplished most of the steps required to become officially certified as a Green Sanctuary congregation. We're currently working to formulate a major project focusing on environmental justice. You can help -- contact Jim Allen to get connected.
