Update on Two-Year Initiative Proposals

This Saturday, March 15th is the deadline for submitting ideas to the church-wide two-year social action initiative. So far, we have received three submissions for consideration. I know of a couple others that are pending.
To summarize what we have so far, two focus on the theme of racial justice/mass incarceration, and the other focuses on homelessness. The pending ones I know of address immigration justice and environmental issues.
When all of the ideas have been submitted, they will be shared with the congregation for consideration. When two or more proposals are very similar, we will combine them into one, but will note the number of proposals represented therein.
After a theme is chosen at the May 4th congregational meeting, a steering committee will be formed to guide the work of the two-year initiative.
We look forward to hearing from you.
