The UUA is proud to share with you the Military Ministry Toolkit, a new workshop series designed for congregations seeking to be more inviting and inclusive of military members, veterans, and their families.

The series of six one-hour workshops provides a structured process for learning about issues related to military service, respectfully discussing issues of war and peace, and preparing to welcome and support military personnel, veterans, and their families.

The Military Ministry Toolkit draws on several books, all available from your UUA Bookstore, which will help you and your congregation explore and implement military ministry.
