Social Action Team

The Social Action Team works to provide peace, justice and help for the Grand Valley

Some of the activities this group provides are: 

  • Change for Change: raises money each month for local charities through the Sunday service offering. 
  • Homeless Shelter Overflow: coordinates two weeks of sheltering in our own sanctuary in the winter, for homeless men who find the shelters are full.
  • 3rd Friday movie: shows a movie in the sanctuary on a Social Action topic. 
  • Soup Kitchen: UUCGV works the 2nd Saturday at the Catholic Outreach soup kitchen. There are 2 shifts: cooking using ingredients provided (9am - 11:30am); and serving/cleanup (11:30am - 2pm). Both shifts are welcome to have lunch before the doors open to the public at 12:00. 
  • Organizes various protests, rallies & marches: Works with other groups in the Grand Valley, such as G.V. Peace and Justice, and others. 
  • Plans and delivers occasional Sunday services: on topics chosen by the group.
