Our 7th Unitarian Universalist principle is “to affirm and promote respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.”   UUCM is an active member of the UUA’s Ministry for Earth initiative.  

In November 2012, after four years of environmental education, stewardship, and activism, UUCM was awarded certification as a Green Sanctuary by the UUA. Less than 20% of UU congregations have earned this certification.

Since 2008, UUCM has been working in the Green Sanctuary Program – an effort supporting the vision that, together, we can create a world in which all people make reverence, gratitude, and care for the Earth a core part of our lives. We are very proud of our designation and will continue to pursue sustainable lifestyles as individuals and as a faith community.
