Wouldn’t it be wonderful if every congregation within our Massachusetts Conference could find a special way of helping to shape a system that renders justice through restorative and unifying actions that truly build community? For over 12 years, the Restorative Justice Task Team, composed of members of UCC churches, has been striving to promote such actions and efforts within the Massachusetts Conference, and to help empower congregations to be a driving force in the movement for a justice of restoration and promotion of peace and community.
