OctOctober 28 , 2020Neighbors Together in Faith and Justice
Wednesday, Oct 28th 7:00p to 8:30p
Mount Moriah Baptist Church, Hill Havurah, and the Lutheran Church of the Reformation will be coming together over the course of four evenings to address our own traditions’ histories and texts of racism and/or anti-semitism, as well as elements of our own traditions’ theologies and how they call for anti-racism and radical inclusion. We’ll be addressing our communities’ work, obstacles, and goals around these issues, as we connect as neighbors and as friends. During each session leaders from the congregations will bring examples of guiding lights and stumbling blocks for neighborliness and allyship. Leaders Pastor Ben Hogue, Rabbi Hannah Spiro, Pastor Lucius Dalton, and Pastor Mike Wilker welcome all to join! We hope that participants will commit to attend all four sessions, and register by 9/9 so that we can plan effectively. This is a virtual Zoom service.
