<div>Hi Jane and Nancy,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you for this idea and the tree. Are we able to put many leaves on the tree and not just choose one? It is much too hard for me to choose just a few because I love all of these causes! I am especially yearning for justice for animals because they
do not speak our language in words, (and they don’t have thumbs) so they cannot take care of themselves. Also for Our Mother Earth because she is so valuable and life sustaining even for those who defile her.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Many Blessings,</div>
<div>Brenda L.</div>

<p>Hi FUUSM friends,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The tree of life for democracy and our social justice work is up in the sanctuary. As I mentioned last week this is a participatory project. If you are willing we have made symbolic green leaves for you to write about democracy and this social justice work.
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Nancy Lee and I will be handing out these "leaves at Sunday's service for you to write on them about some aspect of this work. Here is a handy but incomplete list of some of them -- social justice for:
</p>
<ul>
<li>the earth or planet </li><li>the animals </li><li>the disabled </li><li>economic equality </li><li>public education </li><li>clean energy </li><li>freedom for all </li><li>affordable health care </li><li>human rights </li><li>LGBTQ equality </li><li>prison reform </li><li>racial justice </li><li>social justice </li><li>women's rights</li></ul>
<p>to name just a few, add your own or some thing else. There will be a basket for you to hand them back and we will put them on the tree. We will be doing this all month. Maybe by the end of the month the tree in the sanctuary will reflect the greening of
Marietta this spring. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Jane Tumas-Serna</p>
<p>Nancy Lee<br>

All people dream, but not equally. <br>
Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds,<br>
Wake in the morning to find that it was vanity.<br>
But the dreamers of the day are dangerous people,<br>
For they dream their dreams with open eyes<br>
And make them come true. D. H. Lawrence<br>
