Mutual Aid. Perhaps you know the term. Perhaps it’s new to you! Perhaps you’re involved in local mutual aid efforts in your community. Perhaps you understand your church as imbued with the spirit and practices of mutual aid. Perhaps you’d like it to be! 

Wherever you are in engaging in the “new old” practice of mutual aid, we are excited to announce upcoming trainings and resources for congregations in 2026 – pastors, lay leaders, everyone!  

We will learn from communities and UCC congregations actively practicing mutual aid, learn why it’s so important for so many more to join and undertake mutual aid efforts if we want to have a sustainable economy and world, and learn that we are not alone in manifesting a beautifully just world. 

Please reach out to Minister for Economic Justice Seth Wispelwey at wispelweys@ucc.org if you are interested in learning more, and stay tuned for announcements of resources and trainings in the coming year!
