OUR VIRTUAL SUNDAY SERVICE

April 19, Earth Day Service  

Join UUCR for our annual Earth Day service hosted by the Green Sanctuary. Wednesday April 22, 2020 will be the 50 th anniversary of Earth day. The first Earth Day was a unified response to an environment in crisis — oil spills, smog, rivers so polluted they literally caught fire.

On April 22, 1970, 20 million Americans took to the streets, college campuses and hundreds of cities to protest environmental ignorance and demand a new way forward for our planet. Once again, we are faced with the need to overcome environmental ignorance and find a new way forward. Disease is natures response to environmental degradation. We are in crises and must look for a new way.

This Earth Day service will be a meditation to guide each of us toward a personal path of environmental awareness and justice.

To view this service (it will be uploaded late morning/early afternoon on Sunday), click  UUCR Earth Day Service  to go to the UUCR's Youtube channel. You may also to to the church's webpage,   uuofchesterriver , and find the service by clicking on the tab at the bottom of the "Keeping In Touch"  column on the left side of the page. 
 
We will also have written versions of the service available that we can email to you or mail to you by US postal service.
