Renewal: Stories from America's Religious-Environmental Movement

Bemidji, MN - The Unitarian Universalist Association sponsors the showing of
the documentary, Renewal, by donating the movie DVD to all its congregation's
social justice committees. The producers were inspired to make Renewal by
the countless Americans who are answering a spiritual call of Faith to
confront the enormous challenges of environmental degradation.

Renewal: Stories from America's Religious-Environmental Movement
Headwaters Unitarian Universalist Fellowship
522 America Ave.
Monday, January 25th, 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
Good-will donation

To quote the producers: "This documentary shows that, America's great
movements for social transformation - the abolition of slavery; promotion of
civil rights and immigrant right; support for the poor and homeless - have
all included the commitment of people of faith. And, today's religious -
environmental movement is poised to have a similar significant impact.

When so many news headlines proclaim the ways that religions divide people,
the heroes of our documentary truly celebrate the potential for multi-faith
action to unify our communities and the world. The religious-environmental
movement grows as people from diverse traditions come together and work to
build a sustainable future. Renewal is their story." Mary Ostrow and Terry
Kay Rockefeller, producers.
