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.

Interconnected Beauty, Multicultural Commitment

December 3, 2017 at 9:15 am Rev. Nancy McDonald Ladd Senior Minister

This month, we kick off our holiday theme of “Beauty,” by looking at the grace and beauty that are inherent in a truly multicultural reality. Our guest speakers, Takiyah Amin and Yuri Yamamoto, are authors and organizers in the UU People of Color Story Project who can testify to the moments of grace we touch when we are truly interconnected. Special guest musician Joshua Long will also bring his voice to our congregational singing.
