Just Eating?
After the overwhelming,
positive response to Mission 1, the Collegium invites and encourages all
conferences, associations and congregations to participate and engage in
dialogue and discussion during the Lenten Season using the Just Eating Curriculum. This wonderful curriculum calls us to integrate the
commitments and practices of our faith into the way we eat. We think it
will be a great enhancement to your work around food justice and sustainability
issues. We look forward to hearing
about your Lenten experiences using this curriculum

- Let's Move Faithfully Walking Challenge
As a part of her initiative to reduce obesity in children, First Lady Michelle Obama has issued a challenge to faith and community organizations to get members walking a collective three million miles across the nation. UCC participants took up the call and walked 258,596.36 miles! Thank you for your work!
- Plan an Instant Recess in you congregation!
“Instant Recess” is a 10-minute break, like a coffee break but healthier. The session can be instituted wherever people gather: day care centers, schools, workplaces, conferences, places of worship, senior centers, etc. Plan one for your congregation on Let's Move Sunday!
