Forrest Church Fund Announced
On Saturday, June 28th, the Rev. Forrest Church of the Unitarian Church of All Souls in New York, NY, received the Award for Distinguished Service to the Cause of Unitarian Universalism before the 2008 General Assembly. Read more.
In his honor, the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) has partnered with the Unitarian Church of All Souls in New York to establish the Forrest Church Fund (FCF) for the Advancement of Liberal Religion as part of the Now is the Time Campaign. Rev. Church has called Unitarian Universalists (UUs) across our nation to wrestle with the compelling questions of life, faith, human frailty, and death, and has been an unparalleled voice of our faith in the public square.
Join us in this tribute to one of the most influential Unitarian Universalist ministers of the late 20th and early 21st Centuries.
