Project animals (and training in their care) offer
hungry families around the world a way to feed themselves and
become self-reliant. Children receive nutritious milk or
eggs; families earn income for school, health care and better
housing; communities go beyond meeting immediate needs to
fulfilling dreams. Farmers learn sustainable, environmentally
sound agricultural techniques.
UNICEF
Founded in 1946, UNICEF advocates and works for the
protection of children's rights, to help the young meet their
basic needs and to expand their opportunities to reach their
full potential. The UNICEF Executive Board reaffirmed this
mandate in January 1996, when it adopted a statement on the
mission of UNICEF saying that UNICEF "is guided by the
Convention on the Rights of the Child and strives to
establish children's rights as enduring ethical principles
and international standards of behavior towards
children.".

Bring your kids closer to GOD, and each
other, in 30 intense hours.
Coffee House Ministry – United Church of Christ military chaplains
have found an old way to invite soldiers in Iraq into a safe and informal
place where they can receive spiritual care and good coffee. Congregations
and individuals can support the Coffee House Ministry and simultaneously
participate in the UCC Coffee Project by sending Equal Exchange Coffee to
the military Chaplains in Baghdad. Special thanks to First Congregational
United Church of Christ in Wallingford, Connecticut for creating this
ministry and supporting it in an ongoing way.

United Church of ChristUnited Church of Christ - Welcome to the United Church of Christ—a community of faith that seeks to respond to the Gospel of Jesus Christ in word and deed. The U.C.C was founded in 1957 as the union of several different Christian traditions: from the beginning of our history, we were a church that affirmed the ideal that Christians did not always have to agree to live together in communion. Our motto—"that they may all be one"—is Jesus' prayer for the unity of the church.
