RRUUC is an easy-access facility.

Resolution on Racial Justice
As individuals, we commit to a new level of engagement, to continually seek ways to use our voices, our privilege, our standing in the community to effect change.
As a congregation, we commit to turning a new page. We declare the obvious—that Black lives matter to our beloved community. We affirm the need for powerful words and collective action, both to call out injustice and to call in love.

RRUUC Land and Labor Acknowledgment
We acknowledge that the land on which we worship is the traditional land of the Nacotchtank and Piscataway people and the land through which other Indigenous Peoples traveled. We acknowledge that enslaved African people and their descendants likely labored and lived on this land. We recognize these and other people displaced, enslaved, or harmed by past injustices.

We pledge that we will follow our faith in love and work to make our congregation and our larger community more accessible, inclusive, and equitable. We pledge that we will be good stewards of the land by encouraging healthy ecosystems. We pledge to remember the past while building a more just and welcoming future for all.

Peace Like A River: A Multigenerational Water Communion and Ingathering

Sun., Sept. 8, 9:15 & 11:15am Revs Nancy Ladd & Amanda Weatherspoon, RRUUC Choir & Religious Educators

Welcome back! Please join us as we return from the summer with our ingathering services and festivities. Two multi-generational services at 9:15am and 11:15am.

To two services, to the first weeks of school, to everything that awaits in the coming season. This Sunday, we’ll share a service for all ages based around the classic hymn “Peace Like A River.” What do you bring with you into this Fall? Peace like a river? Tears like the raindrops? Strength like a mountain? Love like the ocean? Perhaps a bit of all of them – and when you bring water from your tap or your travels to mingle with the contributions of others, the combination is a more powerful community. Join us between services for a Hullabaloo! – a party for all ages, and welcome to all that the months ahead might bring. Families with children of all ages are encouraged to attend.
