We had a great time this past weekend, as folks from Healing Transitions joined us in a clean-up of Brownleigh Drive, where the church is located! It was blustery, full of warm connections! #progressive #church #raleigh #cleaning #lgbtqia #recovery #healing

Just Like Selma: A Social Justice Hymn Commemorating the 100th Year of Black History Month (Updated)
YouTube video by NEWorks Productions Just Like Selma: A Social Justice Hymn Commemorating the 100th Year of Black History Month (Updated)

Just Like Selma is a powerful new hymn inspired by the daring the thousands who marched from Selma to Montgomery 61 years ago to advocate for voting rights, fair wages, education and justice in America.

MLK understood justice can't be divided. Racism, poverty, violence & other injustices are bound together and so must be our response. We honor King as a dreamer & prophet who called us to love that disrupts systems & heals communities. May we keep showing up where justice, compassion & dignity meet

Today we remember the 360 trans people across the world who have been killed in the past year. As we mourn, we work to build a world where we can all be our true selves, made more beautiful for the wide diversity of genders we embody. #transisbeautiful #lgbtqia #progressive #church #raleigh
