Faith Voices for Justice

 

Fourth Thursdays

7:00 - 8:45 PM, Northaven Sanctuary

 

Co-sponsored by Northaven United Methodist Church and the Dallas Area Christian Progressive Alliance, Faith Voices on Justice addresses the foundations of social justice and its specific issues in a coherent and challenging way.  Our purpose is to educate, advocate, and activate around justice to strengthen Northaven’s understanding and practice of justice, the justice ministries of other participating faith communities, and our mutual efforts.

 

Sessions are scheduled 7-8:45 p.m. with the usual format a presentation, plenary question and answer session, and small group discussion and networking.
