Faith CoLab: Tapestry of Faith: The Wi$dom Path: An Adult Program on Money, Spirit, and Life

Activity 3: Unitarian Universalist “Good News” about Money and Wealth

Part of The Wi$dom Path

Activity time: 20 minutes

Materials for Activity

  • Newsprint, markers, and tape

Preparation for Activity

  • Post a sheet of newsprint titled “UU Good News about Money and Wealth.”

Description of Activity

Lead a discussion asking:

  • If you were invited to preach a Unitarian Universalist “gospel,” or good news, about money and wealth, what would you say?
  • How would your good news about money help people live more fulfilled lives?
  • How would your good news help create beloved community in your congregation and beyond?

Capture key ideas from the discussion on newsprint, and ask for a volunteer to type and distribute them to all participants after the workshop. You might also consider posting your newsprint on a stewardship bulletin board and invite people in the broader congregation to add their reflections.
