Impermanence is the underlying reality of all existence. Given that all that appears will disappear, how might we live our lives? A Buddhist-influenced ethic both arises and is influenced by a deep understanding that in the end we will lose everything.

    SHARE THE PLATE COLLECTION

    UUCC donates half of our cash collections each month to local outside charities or social justice organizations chosen by you. We collected $17,000 last year, and over the last fourteen years the Michael Sullivan Share the Plate program has given a total of $168,004 to our recipients. This also means our General Fund has benefited by the equal amount from this offering as stipulated by the policy. Learn more about Share the Plate.
