This past June churches from four corners of the Conference were the first to participate in the climate action challenge issued by Minister and President Jim Antal.  The challenge to the 400 United Church of Christ congregations in the state, asked that 350 of them ring their bells 350 times by the 350th day of the year – December 15.

Above: Dale Rosenberger, Senior Pastor at Dennis Union Church, rings the final chimes of the 350 on the steeple bell.  Shown with Dale are members (left to right) Maggie Bossi (Music Director), Ed Whelden, Carlene Brown, and Charles Knights.
