Green Sanctuary
What is a Green Sanctuary?
Our church is in the middle of a process to change the culture of our church by becoming a certified Green Sanctuary, a distinction only 82 other UU congregations have achieved, and none in central Virginia to date. To learn more about the Green Sanctuary program, go to this UUA link: http://www.uua.org/leaders/environment/greensanctuary/index.shtml
To receive accreditation, a congregation must complete 12 projects over a period of a year or two in four action areas:
- Worship and Celebration
- Religious Education
- Environmental Justice
-
Sustainable Living
