SUMMARY:Black Churches Leading with Solar: Incentives\, Financing\, and Stewardship
DESCRIPTION:With the federal government paying for at least 30% of the cost of solar installation\, if not 40 to 50%\, many congregations that own their own building can no longer afford to not go solar. One of the benefits of going solar is a lower electricity bill\, which means an increase in churches revenue. An increase in revenue is an increase in security and ministry. It is also a way to show good financial and environmental stewardship. Yet\, the upfront cost of going solar can often be a hurdle for some congregations. This is where advantageous financing can play an important role. In this webinar\, we focus on Black churches leading with solar. We will hear experts discuss everything one needs to know about government incentives and solar financing. \nThe Rev. Michael Malcom from the People’s Justice Council and the Rev. Dr. Ambrose F. Carroll from Green The Church will host this webinar that will feature these panelists: \n-Dr. Anthony Kinslow II\, CEO\, Gemini Energy Solutions \n-Patricia Eggleston\, Trinity United Church of Christ\, Chicago \n-Rebecca Perera\, Chief Credit Officer\, Cornerstone Fund \nEven if one cannot make the webinar at its scheduled time\, all those who register will receive a link to a recording of it. \nCo-Hosted by the United Church of Christ\, Green The Church\, the People’s Justice Council\, and Alabama Interfaith Power & Light. \nCo-Sponsored by Blessed Tomorrow\, Creation Justice Ministries\, Green Chalice of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)\, Interfaith Power & Light\, Third Act Faith\, Unitarian Universalist Association\, and United Black Christians.

SUMMARY:Earth Sunday Resource: Addressing the Plastics Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Everywhere we look in our culture you will find plastic. It surrounds our food\, it makes up our technology\, and it is a standard element in our household items. Unfortunately\, it is also overflowing from our landfills\, floating in our waters\, and polluting our soil. More and more\, you can even find it in our own bodies and those of other living creatures. Creation Justice Ministries has created an Earth Sunday resource designed to help congregations think more deeply about the ways that plastics impact our lives and God’s creation. It is also intended to equip people of faith to take actions to address this epidemic in faithful and practical ways. The title of this new resource is “Plastic Jesus: Real Faith in a Synthetic World.” Join us as we hear from the lead author of the resource Derrick Weston. \nEven if you cannot make the webinar at its scheduled time\, still sign-up\, and we will send you a link to a recording of it. \nThis monthly installment of Creation Justice Webinars is co-hosted by the Rev. Dr. Brooks Berndt who serves as the Minister of Environmental Justice for the United Church of Christ and the Rev. Michael Malcom who serves as the Executive Director for Alabama Interfaith Power & Light and the People’s Justice Council.

SUMMARY:Nurture the Soul: Building Congregational Community Safety

SUMMARY:Navigating Interfaith Relations in the Midst of Global Conflict
DESCRIPTION:Over the past few months since the escalation of violence in the Middle East\, we have seen a rise in both anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim rhetoric and actions\, including here in the United States. For some congregations that have nurtured interfaith relations over the years\, the crisis in the Middle East has presented a challenge: how to remain faithful to a Christian witness for justice and peace\, accompanying Palestinian partners while also maintaining relationships with Jewish and Muslim neighbors locally. \nJoin us in this webinar to hear from two UCC local church pastors about their interfaith relationships and responses to hateful actions in their communities; and from staff of the Shoulder to Shoulder campaign\, of which the UCC and Disciples are founding members\, who will provide some strategies and tools to help navigate interfaith relationships in these times of increased hatred.

SUMMARY:Against Islamophobia & White Supremacy with Linda Sarsour
DESCRIPTION:The January 6th attack on the United States Capitol showed that white Christian Nationalism is on the rise. 2022 ended with over 200 white nationalist candidates elected at every level of government. With each passing election\, fringe political ideas become more and more mainstream.  Simultaneously\, islamophobia has never lost its public appeal.  The so-called Muslim Ban is just one example of white supremacy becoming policy.  Religious leaders are called to fight back against the rising tide of islamophobia in our community and congregations. \nJoin the conversation with Linda Sarsour\, noted Palestinian-American civil rights leader who will speak on the topic: Islamophobia and White Supremacy. Sarsour was co-chair of the 2017 Women’s March\, the 2017 Day Without a Woman\, and the 2019 Women’s March. She is also a former executive director of the Arab American Association of New York. The event will be livestreamed on the United Church of Christ YouTube channel. \nHosted by the Valley and Mountain Fellowship’s Center for Faith\, Art\, and Justice in partnership with the United Church of Christ’s Join the Movement toward Racial Justice and others\, the series Set Us Free from Fear: Faith\, White Supremacy\, and Politics invites scholars\, clergy\, and activists working at the intersection of race and faith to share their wisdom to our broader communities. \nView Livestream Here
