Mental Health Sunday: Resources from the UCC MHN 2024

April 12, 2024 in Conference News

Click Here to Download the Mental Health Sunday Worship Guide

Dear friends of the UCC Mental Health Network,

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and the UCC MHN wants to make sure you have resources to best equip you for a Mental Health Sunday! We are sending our PDF for Worship Resources for your Mental Health Sunday created by the UCC, UCC MHN, and United Church of Canada, as well as two videos to use during this time.

Although May 19 is Mental Health Sunday this year, we want to remind you that any Sunday is a great Sunday to focus on mental health!

One video by our chair, Bishop Allyson Abrams can be used to make an appeal to support the MHN and to become WISE congregations or organizations. The other video by Rev. Dr. Sarah Lund can be used to show the importance of caring for our youth and understanding their mental health needs. Please consider using both of these powerful videos during your worship services this month as we raise awareness about mental health challenges and mental wellness.

Thank you,

Bishop Allyson D. Nelson Abrams, PhD
Chair, UCC Mental Health Network
