Easter Baskets 

On Palm Sunday, Judy, Fred and Sharon packed Easter baskets full of toys, books, pens, jelly beans and tons of chocolate for 15 kids!

Deana, from Community Health Care Affiliates, was once again thrilled by the generous contributions of Buckingham members for her at-risk kids.

Thank you to all who contributed to ensure that 15 kids will awaken Easter morning to a basket of goodies!

Happy Easter!

Your Mission & Outreach Team

Buckingham Church has participated as both campers and leaders at HUH for many years. It is always a fun and fulfilling time! 


The Heads Up! Hartford Program coordinators shared the following:
 We are looking forward to welcoming campers, staff, and volunteers at our nonprofit overnight community service and leadership camp at the Ethel Walker School in Simsbury June 22- 28, 2025.


 Our camp is centered around our love of community. Each day, our campers volunteer with one of our community partners in the greater Hartford area. Every day is different at HUH; depending on the day, our campers might be packing donations at a food bank, building picnic tables for a playground, or harvesting food at a community farm. Then, we return to camp to enjoy time together through activities, guest speakers, and games!


Campers must have completed 8th grade and can attend as campers up through the summer after their high school graduation.


For more information about camp, please check out our website at headsuphartford.org, email us at headsuphartford@gmail.com, or call Rose Murphy at 203-445-3269.

LGBTQ Asylum Task Force
May 4th Worship  


As an Open and Affirming Church, we seek to support the Queer Community as best we can.

The LGBT Asylum Task Force, founded by a long-time friend of Pastor Moon, Rev. Judy Hanlon, provides shared housing for LGBTQ asylum seekers in Worcester, Massachusetts. If funds are available, they provide a small monthly stipend to pay for food, transportation, and other basic expenses which continues until asylum seekers receive their work permits .


Asylum seekers are a class of refugees who seek protection in the U.S. from torture and abuse in their home countries.

They must have faced persecution or have a well-founded fear of persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion. “Particular social group” has been interpreted to include the LGBTQ community.


The Task Force provides a list of pro bono immigration lawyers that might be able to assist asylum seekers with the application process and help connect asylum seekers to a doctor and therapist at the local health center.

In an era of increasing danger for members of the Queer Community, LGBTQ+ refugees are among the most vulnerable.

Come with means to make a contribution to their work, cash or a check, if you are able, and if you are moved to do so.

They will be available for questions during coffee hour.

In the love of God--Pastor Denny Moon
