This past May Rev. Antal rode his bike to Washington, D.C., with Interfaith Power and Light (IPL). The UUCRT is a member congregation of the New York chapter of IPL. Rev. Antal will share about his ride, along with the history and purpose of IPL, and explore what member congregations like the UUCRT are doing, or can do.
