Stepping Into the River

Onsite & Zoom.  In a time when discouragement can feel close at hand, what does it mean to stay open to possibility? Together, we’ll explore small acts of hope, connection, and courage can help us imagine ~ and begin to shape ` a more loving world. Like stepping into a river that is always moving, we’ll reflect on the courage it takes to enter what is changing and unknown. We’ll share our offering plate with Migrant Justice training us in rapid response to ICE detentions and advocating for improved working conditions through the Milk with Dignity campaign.
