Youth Service Learning Trip: Puerto Rico

All current 6th-12th grade students are invited to join Middle Church on a Service-Learning Trip to Puerto Rico from July 1-7 2019. Together we will engage ongoing recovery and resiliency work post-hurricane and interrogate the historical backdrop that has shaped Puerto Rico.

In March, we celebrate and honor Women's History and Culture Month. Please join us.

Thank you for all the ways you have shown up for LOVE across the country and in our sanctuary. Together you are reclaiming and reframing Christianity. Here are a few ways:

“The thing that does not change, the thing that has no change, is the persistent myth of white supremacy,” she said. “That takes form in the Christian church, where white supremacy masquerades as faith, that gets built into capitalism, that gets built into government, that gets built into voter redistricting, and it gets written into how we’re going to gerrymander. And that sense of keeping white folks on top does not change.” —Rev. Jacqui Lewis

This February, we celebrate and honor Black History & Culture month. A full listing of celebrations and events is listed below. Please join us.

THE STATEMENT

We the undersigned are Rabbis who decry anti-Semitism in all forms and affirm our support for the Women’s March.

Movements are Messy

Movements are messy, but we have to move!
Toward justice, toward freedom, toward wholeness and health care.
Toward women's rights, toward planet care, toward obliterating white supremacy.

Movements are messy.
We don't agree on who God is, or what God wants.
We don't agree on strategies and tactics.
We don't love the same people in the same way.

Join us as we honor the legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. with a weekend (Jan. 18-21) of direct action, learning, and reflection. Middle Church will participate in both the NYC and D.C. Women's March on Saturday. On Sunday, Jan. 20, Ruby Sales joins us at Middle Church for a Teach-in. Full schedule below:
