Help Us Build a Banned Book Library
Inspired by the service project at the UCC denominational synod (https://jointhemovementucc.org/jtm-news/gs35-banned-books-service-project/ )
we are building our own banned book library. The library will open in October for
“Banned Books Week” and during a month-long study we as a church are
planning on intellectual freedom
We hope you’ll consider contributing to the UCH Banned Book Library!
Monetary donation will be accepted to purchase books from local independent
bookstores – click here to donate:

-or-
Buy your own favorite banned book and bring it to the church offices or on Sunday morning so we can add it to the library
How is creating a Banned Book Library sacred
work for these times?
“In the United Church of Christ, we know that as people called to build a just
world for all, we need each other’s stories and experiences to live into the
fullness of the Body of Christ. We believe that banned books have a
special vocation, a particular calling in our faith communities: to help
expand and enliven the image of God and empower us to reckon with truths
that demand our loving accountability.”

Monthly Sandwich Making to Support the Night Ministry
2025-08-17 11:15 - 13:00 (America/Chicago) | Union Church of Hinsdale, 137 S Garfield Ave., Hinsdale, IL, 60521, United States
If you are looking for a powerful way to make an impact, even with limited time, look no further. Part of the Night Ministry’s mission is to provide approximately 150 sack lunches monthly to children and families in need. This is where Union Church can help! Volunteering less than 2 hours of your time, you can be part of the team that buys, assembles or delivers these lunches. We pack on the third Sunday of the month after the 10:00 service, in the Dining Room. Just come on down, or sign up here.
This does not have to be a monthly commitment, sign up for the months that work for you.
Please keep in mind, this is a great family activity or a way to gather those service hours. Please refer to the Sign Up Genius link below:
