SUMMARY:MLK 55 Years Later — Can the Church Study War No More?
DESCRIPTION:April 2\, 2022 Riverside Church\, NYC (and online) \nRe-examining the links between militarism and racism  \nCan America learn to “study war no more”? \nJoin the event virtually or in person on April 2nd to mark the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s “Beyond Vietnam” speech in the place where he delivered it 55 years ago – the historic Riverside Church. \nAt a time when the justness and necessity of the Vietnam War was still broadly accepted\, Dr. King issued a stirring rebuke to the U.S. establishment\, naming his own government as “the greatest purveyor of violence in the world.” \nWe will explore the connections Dr. King made in that speech between the “three evils” of militarism\, racism\, and poverty and their impact on Black lives a half century later. We’ll look at the road from Iraq to Ferguson and talk about how the Church and the American people can overcome the forces of war and violence to build a more peaceful and just nation and planet. \nJoin us for: \n\nMusical performances\nAn inspiring reading of the “Beyond Vietnam” speech by national faith leaders and activists\nA conversation with leading voices from the American church and anti-militarism movements on forging a new path\n\nThe event will take place on Saturday\, April 2 from 3:30 to 6 pm ET. \nRSVP and receive updates of confirmed guests\, performers and panelists as they become available! \nREGISTER FOR EVENT

SUMMARY:Restoring Nature: What People of Faith Can Do to Heal the Earth
DESCRIPTION:Douglas Tallamy’s books have awakened thousands to the problem of wildlife decline and the solution that resides in habitat restoration. This is a solution of which you and your faith community can be a part. The solution can be as close as your backyard or the property surrounding your place of worship. In this webinar\, Tallamy will outline the crisis faced and what we can do in response. The green teams and green thumbs of faith communities will learn not only about cultivating native plants in the landscapes around them\, but also what can be done to create a transformative movement full of actions ordinary people everywhere can take. \nTo care for God’s creation\, we can start by simply stepping outside the doors of where we gather for worship to make the most of our sacred places. In this webinar\, Tallamy will raise our awareness and equip us to make a difference in our world. \nThis webinar is co-hosted by the Rev. Dr. Brooks Berndt who serves as the Minister of Environmental Justice for the United Church of Christ and the Rev. Carol Devine who serves as the Minister of Green Chalice for the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and the Interim Director of Blessed Tomorrow. \nREGISTER FOR EVENT HERE \nEvent Co-Sponsors: Blessed Tomorrow\, Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon\, Interfaith Power & Light\, Multnomah Athletic Club\, Oregon-Idaho Conference of the United Methodist Church\, Planet Church of First United Methodist Church of Portland\, and West Multnomah Soil & Water Conservation District. \nSpecial thanks to the Rev. Jim Ruyle for making this event possible.
