Social Justice Meeting

The Social Justice team will meet downstairs in Willson Hall on June 17.

The First Church in Salem Social Justice Committee upholds the Unitarian Universalist values of pluralism, transformation, justice, generosity, interdependence, and equity with Love at the Center. In addition to hosting poster making sessions and other informational meetings, we encourage members to attend Love and Justice Vigils along with our friends from Tabernacle Church.

The SJ Committee has recently begun to share weekly Quick Social Justice Actions. These are quick, easy steps congregants can take that might only take 5-10 minutes weekly that will make a difference.
