Gun Sense 

The purpose of the Gun Sense Ministry Team is to empower Unity Church and its membership to be active citizens in this process of dialogue and creation of policy. If you would like to learn more about the work of this team, please contact Sandy Lucas at salucas60@gmail.com or Jo Lucas at jolucas41@comcast.net.

Gun Sense Team Update 

Sandy Lucas, Gun Sense Team

As I sit down to write this piece, another mass shooting has rocked our country, this one an overtly racist hate crime, in a small community in New York. It is the 19th week of 2022, and already there have been 187 mass shootings in America — almost ten every single week.

With more guns in the United States than people, the work of this team often feels daunting, but also important. We have decided to take a two-pronged approach to our work when we return in the fall: we will look at the practicalities of what gun safety might look like in our homes and community, and we will consider how best to address the continuing need for reasonable gun legislation. To those ends, our team will be partnering with two organizations, Moms Demand Action and Protect Minnesota.

We will be doing our homework, bringing our findings to you, and sharing specific ways that we hope will help us and you, proceed with some sense of agency in this ongoing work.

Join Protect Minnesota!

Each ministry team at Unity Church is required to partner with an organization outside of the church. Unity's Gun Sense Ministry Team partners with Protect Minnesota, the only independent state-focused organization working for reasonable gun safety policy solutions in Minnesota. We urge all of you to look at their website and to join the organization. We think that it is positive, focused and reliable.
