Civil Rights + Faith Learning

Nine youth and two adults from our “Being the Church” congregations are heading to Alabama this June to explore their faith through a social justice lens. Participants are preparing by studying key figures and events; reading scripture; and meeting together for reflections and prayer.  In June, participants will visit historic and modern sites on the civil rights trail in Birmingham, Montgomery and Selma, Alabama.  

Trip participants will be visiting all of our worshipping congregations this spring to share some reflections, and show their appreciation to our churches.

Significant fundraising efforts are making this trip possible: thank you!  More are underway.  Donations to support a youth can be made directly via the QR Code or please contact Pastor Melinda about details re. personal check donations. (e: Melinda@BeingtheChurchLB.org)

$1,000 sponsors a youth.

All donations are deeply appreciated.
