“…to do justice, love kindness and walk humbly with your God.” – Micah 6:8
We strive to engage fully in the mission of the church and God’s mission in the world, recognizing the wisdom of Nobel Peace Prize recipient, Burma’s Aung San Suu Kyi’s three-fold path of compassion: “The courage to see. The courage to feel. And the courage to act.”
Our newest and lonstanding initiatives are described here and other ideas are shared through the SHUC weekly email, inTouch, including how to increase congregational and community awareness and involvement in the four pillars of Outreach. We welcome your participation in current and future activities.
