Restorative Justice: Punishment or Justice

Sunday, January 19, 9:30am – 1:30pm, Jackson Chapel

On January 19, we will be speaking from the pulpit about our partnership with the Greater Lansing Congregation Quilt Project on Prison Reform. After the service, come to the Jackson Chapel to see five beautiful quilts and learn about the project and how we have traditionally responded to conflict, harm, and crime. Let us join to find a more restorative approach as we want to bring hope and redemption to those who are inside our prisons and jails. 

If you might be interested in participating in an American Friends Service Committee training to help those inside with their commutations, including applications and letters of support, contact us at restorativejusticeinfo@uuaa.org. 

On February 22, we will host a presentation from formerly incarcerated citizens. Details forthcoming.
