Become a Justice-Seeking Congregation!

July 18, 2018 — Rio Texas MFSA

Last summer MFSA piloted a new opportunity for congregations to declare their commitment to intersectional movements for justice and connect with our justice-seeking witness. As Justice Seeking Congregations covenant to call themselves, their congregations and the church to expand its understanding of the call of the Gospel to be the inclusive, anti-racist/anti-oppressive, justice seeking, risk taking Body of Christ. They live out our belief that to be faithful witnesses to the Gospel of Jesus Christ is to be involved in the transformation of the world. They believe transformation is possible and hold these values as we seek sacred change in our congregations, communities, denomination and our world. Watch Rev. Lydia Munoz, MFSA Board Member and Lead Pastor of Church of the Open Door UMC in Eastern Pennsylvania share why her congregation felt called to become a Justice-Seeking Congregation here.
