For many, the holiday season can be a particularly lonely time. Those who are experiencing incarceration are often particularly vulnerable to isolation and loneliness. You can make a real difference! Here are three quick and easy ways you can show over 1,700 incarcerated members of the Church of the Larger Fellowship that you care this holiday season.

Here’s How to Help!
WRITE HOLIDAY MESSAGES
Send a simple holiday message (or several) to incarcerated members
Many facilities are no longer accepting cards of any type. Given this restriction, this year’s holiday wishes will be sent using our (free) festive designs. Sign up to write messages from the link below, and we’ll send you the PDFs to print and mail.
Read the guidelines here: Holiday Messages Guidelines.
After reading the guidelines, sign up here: Holiday Messages Sign Up.
BECOME A PENPAL
Join our letter-writing ministry by becoming a pen pal. The CLF’s Worthy Now Prison Network provides you an opportunity to live out our Unitarian Universalist values by connecting you with a pen pal. At Worthy Now, our message is that all of us are part of the interwoven fabric of the universe. We are deeply and undeniably connected! We acknowledge that while our behaviors can vary from loving to hate-filled acts of disruption and harm, our inherent worth remains
unchanged.
