Community Outreach One of our principal forms of expressing our social concern is by bringing the issues of today to the congregation as topics for church services and in the Sunday Morning Forum Series. Our church has sponsored the North Shore Friends, for former mental patients, a Vietnam Refugee Furniture Clearing House, and a Recycling Program. We participate and support the Social Concerns program of the Unitarian Universalist Service Committee, and the Benevolent Fraternity of Boston, which conducts a wide range of ministries in the inner city. Through legacies of our Peabody church predecessors, we support the elderly through the Charles B. Haven Home and children in need through the Isaac Munroe Fund. Between shelter in Lynn and at the Haven from Hunger in Peabody.
Individual members make our greatest contributions.
Their efforts are listed on a sheet, available in the office, which describes the wide range of church involvement. Service efforts of individual members are honored each year with our Frank Farnum Community Service Award. We provide a comprehensive religious education program for children from nursery through high school age. The program is closely coordinated and integrated with the total church community. We emphasize a wide variety of intergenerational activities when children and adults are together, including periodic attendance at Sunday services and a wide range of social events.
