Christ Centered Justice Team

Our Vision: A more just, peaceful, and compassionate world ​that honors all of God's creation.
Our Mission:  To seek out and address local and national social justice issues through education, information, public witness and public policy advocacy.
Our Focus as an Economic Justice Church which is in accord with the National United Church of Christ is:
  • Economic Justice - including hunger and homelessness
  • Environmental Justice
  • Criminal Justice
  • Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Justice
  • Immigration Justice
Actions:
  • Develop materials for UCC Mission Sundays that highlight one of the five priorities.
  • Develop educational materials and programming such as bulletin boards, adult education forums, movies and videos.
  • Develop for congregation letters and postcards, pre-addressed to local, state, and federal officials, advocating for just public policies and laws.
  • Provide action opportunities for members to go out of the church and raise voices for those not being heard.
  • Work with Lake Edge congregation to implement the Economic Justice Covenant.
  • Work with and support interfaith partners including: United Church of Christ Justice and Witness ministries, Wisconsin Faith Voices for Justice, Interfaith Coalition for Worker Justice of South Central Wisconsin and MOSES.
