Chalice Lighters - Add your spark to the flame
Join your fellow Unitarian UniversalistsMaking a $20 gift to JPD Chalice Lighters
Three times a year.
Your Chalice Lighter gifts work wonders to help the flame of Unitarian Universalism burn brightly. Combined with gifts from other UUs in our District, your gift helps to jump start new congregations and provides critical grant support to existing congregations. Joseph Priestley District (JPD) Chalice Lighters in our 67 congregations in MD, PA, DC, DE, and NJ have combined their $20 or $40 or more in contributions to help start 7 new congregations over the last 15 years, adding 750 new Unitarian Universalists to our numbers.
$20 isn’t much to ask, but combined with thousands of others in the JPD, it enables congregations to build strong ministry, attract children, youth, and adults, and offer enhanced music services. If our congregation has over 33% participation in the Chalice Lighter program, we will be recognized on the Honor Roll at the JPD Spring Conference.
Those members who have given generously to Chalice Lighters in the past can take special pleasure in the knowledge that they are doing their part to strengthen Unitarian Universalism in our District. Look on the information table in October for signup information.
