SUMMARY:From Survival to Sanctuary: Meeting the Moment Community First Aid and Embodied Practice
DESCRIPTION:Join in fellowship for a collaboration between Judson’s Health and Safety Working Group and Middle Church’s Meeting the Moment Task Force for a special event on Sunday February 9th at 1pm\, where we will transition into a time of collective\, embodied practice — acknowledging how the challenges of these times lives in our bodies\, and locating the powerful tools of faith\, breath\, and action together. Our special guest for the day will be Miriam\, an ER RN and Street Medic who has been leading free anti-carceral community first aid trainings in collaboration with Judson. Miriam will lead us in a session reviewing some basic collective readiness protocols for both sanctuary and street action in a range of scenarios\, as well as addressing specific risks in this moment around police and ICE involvement. We’ll close with actionable next steps and with an invitation to future offerings already in the workd from Judson\, Middle\, and our network of radical faith spaces.

SUMMARY:What White People Must Do Now: A critical conversation led by Rev. Amanda Hambrick & Rev. John Janka.
DESCRIPTION:In 2012\, as we mourned the death of Trayvon Martin\, Middle Church’s board declared that we would no longer simply be known as a multi-ethnic\, multicultural\, fully-welcoming congregation\, we would commit to Antiracism in the center of our faith\, love\, politics and ethics. \nOn January 19\, 2025\, from 10:30-11:30a\, in honor of Martin Luther King\, Jr. and his prophetic work\, join us in a Zoom Classroom for \nWhat White People Must Do Now: \nA critical conversation led by Rev. Amanda Hambrick & Rev. John Janka. \n(All are welcome\, no matter your ethnic identity.) \nIn his seminal book\, Where Do We Go From Here: Community or Chaos\, Dr. Martin Luther King\, Jr. wrote: \n\n“White Americans must recognize that justice for Black people cannot be achieved without radical changes in the structure of our society.” \n\nJoin us as we continue our intentional journey toward building antiracist Beloved Community. \nAfter class\, make your way to Middle Church for our 3:00p King Day Worship Celebration featuring a movement music sing-in and an honoring of Mrs. Fannie Lou Hamer and the work of our Voter Reform Group. \nStay for a hour with jazz music\, great conversation\, and hugs with friends. \nRegister using this link
