 A Green Sanctuary is a congregation that lives out its commitment to the Earth by creating a sustainable life style for its members as individuals and as a faith community. Sustainable living is not about our material comfort (though these choices are an important part of the overall life style); it is about choosing to live in a way that nurtures life, builds relationships, and rejects material consumption as the sole determinant of happiness.
In 2007 the Green Sanctuary leaders began to gather information about current energy consumption, recycling habits, food and shopping choices, and the use of toxic substances - both around the campus and at the homes of members. Based on that data the Green Sanctuary leaders have identified areas for education and improvement and are currently designing twelve projects to submit with the application for Candidacy in the UUA Green Sanctuary Program.

Garden News Update
It's summer and the garden has grown so much in the last two years. A few plants have been replaced, but the textures, colors and smells of the plants that thrived fill the senses with their beauty. Butterflies flutter, hummingbirds buzz and add to the wonder of our native California garden.
Join us on the second-Saturday-of-the-month work parties, from 9:00 AM to noon. We always have some gardening tasks to attend to. Join us at the upcoming second-Saturday-of-the-month's work party! Everyone is welcome.
