Guest at Your Table

By celebrating Guest at Your Table in your congregation, you are helping nurture a spirit of gratitude and "justice, equity, and compassion in human relations." Guest at Your Table fosters understanding and awareness of UUSC's human-rights work.

Guest at Your Table is an annual tradition in which congregation members take home a box featuring people that UUSC has worked with recently. These people are your "guests," and you are asked to share your blessings with them. As you give to your guests, you can learn about them by reading the Stories of Hope booklet.

Most congregations begin their Guest at Your Table celebration on the Sunday before Thanksgiving, November 20, 2011. But please check your congregational calendar for your opening date.

Gifts to Guest at Your Table

When your congregation concludes the program, please convert the donations you have given your guests into a check, then return it in the Guest at Your Table box or envelope to your congregation's Guest coordinator or send it directly to UUSC. The funds raised through this program support our human-rights work in the United States and around the world! Individuals and families can contribute during their congregation's Guest celebration, or contribute online to Guest at Your Table. Here are some examples of how UUSC invests your donations to Guest at Your Table.
