October 21st LRC Connections Call - Celebrating the Season of Creation and our fellow Creatures with a virtual Animal Blessing
Challenge hunger teams to lead up to our holiday season considering their role as consumers - the Economic part of MERGE I think is where these two ministries (LRC+WH) can dive into the longer-term solutions of discovering our power of imagining different systems together (What this month's call considered from Building aa Moral Economy)
