Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of McMinnville Oregon (UUFM)
Religion & Spirituality
Using Sally’s local work in immigration and Latinx [Latinx is a gender-neutral term sometimes used in lieu of Latino or Latina–Ed] advocacy, let’s reflect on the role of justice-making in rural communities and faith organizations. We’ll consider the foundations of building community and gathering courage to step outside one’s comfort zone to make a difference. In today’s political climate, how do we stay energized for the long-haul? Sally will address current issues (including Measure 105) as context for her message.
