Faith Coalition of Lancaster County
Promoting unity, understanding, and mutual support among diverse faith traditions in Lancaster County.
From Listening to Action:
Discovering What Matters to Us
A Conversation with Justice in Action
Wednesday, September 9 | 12:00–1:00 PM
Eastridge Presbyterian Church | 1135 Eastridge Drive, Lincoln
What happens when we take the time to listen—not only to one another’s opinions, but to the stories, concerns, and hopes underneath them?
The Faith Coalition of Lancaster County begins our new programming year, What We Hold in Common, with Beth Graverholt and Olivia Butts, organizers with Justice in Action.
Justice in Action brings together faith communities across Lancaster County to listen for shared concerns, identify root causes of community problems, and build the collective power needed to create change.
But this won’t simply be a presentation about their work.
Beth and Olivia will invite us to experience one of the practices at the heart of community organizing: a listening session.
Our conversation will center on a question related to food insecurity:
What are we seeing, hearing, and experiencing in our community when it comes to putting food on the table—and what does that tell us about the kind of community we want to be?
Come ready to listen, share, and discover what we might hold in common.
