Telling Asian Stories
AAPIDA Heritage Month
We believe art and storytelling is one of the most important ways that we can uproot bigotry and sew the seeds for social change. So, this month in particular, we’re focused on telling diverse Asian stories, focusing on themes of joy, community and resilience. We have sermons and book talks by New York Times bestselling authors, analysis from Asian scholars, queer oral history, community storytelling events and more!

In Memoriam
Honoring Achebe Powell
Achebe Betty Powell died on February 21. Powell spent her life organizing for justice and equality, building God’s reign on Earth. As a groundbreaking Black lesbian activist in the 70’s and 80’s, she was a much sought-after speaker and trainer, and a leader in how to transform principles into policy. She was also a beloved member of Middle Church. She was scheduled to speak at our Freedom Rising gathering. As we mourn, we will dedicate April’s conference in her honor and donate 10% of all ticket sales to the Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice, which she co-founded.

Fierce Love
Inspired by the Ubuntu philosophy “I am who I am because we are who we are” and explained through stories from her own life, Dr. Lewis details the nine daily practices necessary for transforming ourselves, our communities, and our world at large. From learning to put down our emotional baggage to speaking truth to power to resisting joyfully, Dr. Lewis gives readers a renewed sense of the power they have to create caring communities; to stand up for the vulnerable; and to change our shared story from one of anxiety, anger, and divisiveness to one of mindfulness, compassion, and unity.
Jacqui’s Fierce Love is a manifesto for all generations, a universalist’s vision for mending our broken hearts and fractured world.
