of love & justice

Prison Ministry Network: Powered by the CLF

Share the
Offering Plate

Designate Worthy Now as a recipient for your congregation’s offering. Your weekly or monthly collection helps sustain this network of religious liberals committed to providing prison ministry and working for justice. If every UU congregation gave a portion of their plate to Worthy Now, it would make a huge difference.

Offer a Worthy Now Worship Service

Is your congregation interested in learning more about the prison system in the US? The Worthy Now Prison Ministry Team offers a “turnkey” online worship service centering the experiences of incarcerated UUs. Sign up to offer this worship service in your congregation.

Partner with
Worthy Now

People who are incarcerated and have “non-traditional” spiritual beliefs often despair of finding a religious community that will journey with them and encourage their spiritual growth. It costs the CLF $150 to serve each of our incarcerated members for an entire year. Yet prison ministry is not our work to do alone. Your congregation can partner with the CLF and join our Circle of Support.
