Through Our Social Justice Work
We Put Our Seven Principles
Into Action:

of every person.
• Justice, equality & compassion in
human relations.
•Acceptance of one another and encouragement to spiritual growth
in our congregation.
• A free and responsible search for
truth and meaning.
• The right of conscience & the use of the democratic process within our congregation and in society at large.
• The goal of a world community with peace, liberty and justice for all.
• Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part.

GBAUUF AIDS Walk Wisconsin Team
The Fellowship has organized and sponsored a team that
participates in the largest annual statewide fundraiser for HIV/AIDS.
Both real-time and virtual walkers collect money and each September
travel to Milwaukee's Lakefront for an exhilerating day which includes
a rally, enterainment and a 10K walk. Though there is no set goal the
GBAUUF team has averaged raising over $1000 each year over the last
four years.

Golden House Sundays
On the first Sunday of
every month the fellowship conducts its monthly food and hard goods
drive for the Green Bay Domestic Violence Shelter for women and
families also known as Golden House. Members and friends donate coffee,
canned and packaged foods, cleaning supplies, disposable diapers and
other needed items.
NEW
Community Shelter “Room At The Inn” Meals
Several times a year
fellowship members prepare and serve meals
for homeless and low-income individuals and families at the NEW
Community Shelter. The fellowship raises funds to buy fresh fruit and
vegetable items often not available on the homeless shelter menu and
members
bake breads and desserts to give the meals we serve an extra homemade
touch.
Additionally members of our fellowship participate in local, regional and statewide social justice organizations working to improve equal rights, the environment and and other social justice issues. Our Sunday post-service social time allows members and friends to infomrally discuss issues and porvide referrals to activist groups.
