“You Will Always Have the Poor” Virtual Workshop

You Will Always Have the Poor ……
Virtual Workshop
Wednesday October 27 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM
Join this workshop hosted by three Pastors from a statewide campaign on the often quoted Matthew 26 – where Jesus says that, “…You will always have the Poor…” You will do several readings of this story together with other and deepen your understanding of its meaning and the distorted moral narrative that has continued to place the blame for poverty on the poor themselves rather than on the structures that are producing and perpetuating poverty.
Interfaith Progressive Dinner
To honor the International Day of Peace, an Interfaith Progressive Dinner will be held at three different local houses of worship with four faith traditions participating. Small plates of food will be served at each location as we progressively move as one group from place to place.
