Bread for the World: Advocacy Letter Writing

United Church of Chapel Hill 1321 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Chapel Hill

Every day, millions of people in the US and around the world feed and support their families in part because of lifesaving programs funded by our government. We are making progress toward the end of hunger, but we live in challenging times. Our gains are increasingly vulnerable due to the actions and inactions of governing officials. We will write letters pushing our legislators to make funding decisions that can jump start and accelerate progress against hunger. Writing a personal letter is simple and should take only a few minutes.

A Sacred Conversation on Race and Children’s Ministry

United Church of Chapel Hill 1321 Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Chapel Hill

Anitra Grove, Director for Children’s Ministry will join us as we examine the intersections of our Racial Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Covenant with our ministry to the youngest among us. How do we talk with children about race in ways that foster healthy racial identities? How are we affirming the importance of diversity and multiculturalism? How do we help our children understand the past and present realities of racism in such a way that they can learn to tell the truth about race and see themselves as advocates for fairness and justice?
