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.

Justice Sunday – The Art of Liberation

Sun., Oct. 6, 9:15 & 11:15am Rev. Amanda Weatherspoon Minister for Justice & Community Building

Join Rev. Amanda for our first Justice Sunday, a time to highlight the holistic work of our Social Justice groups. The morning begins with a service centered around the broad justice work and issues in which our congregation is involved. Following the service, meet members of River Road’s social justice ministries during coffee hour in the Fellowship Hall. They’ll be there to share their ministry’s work including providing information on upcoming actions, events, and more. So please join us after each service to learn more about social justice at RRUUC, explore the work of the many groups, and maybe find a ministry that fits your interests and passions.
