Green Sanctuary: Climate Justice

2023-2024Congregationa lProject Proposal Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Hendersonville

We are very excited to jump into our Green Sanctuary journey! As you recall, the congregation voted at our Annual Meeting in July to pursue “Green Sanctuary 2030: Mobilizing for Climate Justice” as our congregational project for the year. 

Our Green Sanctuary Steering Committee has been hard at work behind the scenes, and we are currently compiling information for our “Opportunity Assessment,” which will help us determine the most impactful path forward for our congregation. To help with this, we’re asking everyone to take a few minutes to fill out this   UUFH Climate Justice Survey  about your personal habits.


GREEN SANCTUARY CORNER

The Green Sanctuary Congregational Project is an endeavor of the Social Justice/Environment Justice Team and members of UUFH. 
Each month the team will share helpful information with the congregation through the Green Sanctuary Corner.
