“Ministers, religious educators, and congregations have always longed for a publication like this one. We long to find ways to bring generations together and put their faith into action through projects and learning that speaks to all ages. This book will be a resource for families, and also for church professionals and leaders. Thank you to the creators!” --Linda Olson Peebles, Minister of Faith in Action, Unitarian Universalist Church of Arlington, Virginia
"Whether or not families are able to attend church every Sunday, many are craving resources to help their children connect with their faith all week long. This good resource is a godsend to parents who are concerned with raising moral children, and who want to embody the values of their faith community. Creating Justice Together inspires engagement, equips parents as religious educators in their homes, and answers the yearning to make a difference that is shared across generations." --Karen Bellavance-Grace, Director of Faith Formation, Clara Barton & Massachusetts Bay Districts
"No matter how large or small your religious community, one thing is the same: our people lead full, meaningful lives! The projects in this book were created with that reality in mind. Easily laid out, with a focus on inner heart work leading to effective outward change, there are multiple ways to engage multigenerational communities in the faith-filled task of creating Beloved Community." --Tera Little, Minister, Throop UU Church, Pasadena, CA
“As a religious educator, I am so grateful for this compendium of social action projects--not only as a source of ready-made "how to”s for social justice project but for how it equips and empowers lay leaders with a framework to view and address whatever the social justice issues for their community may be.” --Christopher Buja, Director of Lifespan Faith Development, Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Somerset Hills, Somerville, NJ
“Creating Justice Together is a wonderful collection of thirty-six meaningful projects and learning experiences intended for diverse groups of people. Anyone who is eager to grow in their Unitarian Universalist identity could gather a group and use this collection to make a real difference in the world, beginning with the group members. Families, covenant groups, neighborhood circles, and even groups of UU friends might use these projects to truly grow in spirit, service, justice, and love.” --Deborah Cayer, Lead Minister, Eno River Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, Durham, NC
