SUMMARY:Leadership Assembly: Forward Into the Future
DESCRIPTION:This event is for members of Beacon Leadership Teams or emerging teams. \nFall 2022 promises to be a unique one with the upcoming elections in November as the Governor\, Lieutenant Governor and all the state’s legislators are up for reelection! The fall then will be a pivotal time for us as we work to ensure that affordable housing is a top priority and that those elected will be active champions for Bring it Home\, Minnesota! \nTo be as successful as we know we can be we must start organizing NOW for the fall and upcoming legislative session. Organizers are working side by side with the policy team to draft a skeleton of plans for the summer\, fall and early winter. \nWe’ll gather with Beacon Leadership Teams and emerging teams on Tuesday\, May 24th to share the plans\, gather input and together outline next steps in our congregations. Please make attending this assembly a priority as this is a critical step in achieving success for more homes and more rent support this year. \nCast a vision with us about what it looks like to have a world without homelessness! What does this mean to you and those in your community? Fill in the blank: “To me\, a world without homelessness looks like __________” and come prepared to share your answer! \nThis event will be held virtually on Zoom. \n

SUMMARY:Rent is Due: Day of Action - 6/1/22
DESCRIPTION:Our vision is that all people have a home. The pandemic and economic crisis have been building into an eviction crisis\, which could add to the already too large number of people experiencing unsheltered homelessness. We cannot let this happen\, and home is the solution. \nWe need Bring it Home\, Minnesota\, a rent support program that will allow all low-income Minnesotans the security and reassurance of home. \nOn Wednesday\, June 1\, join us on Zoom at 8:30 a.m. for a thirty-minute update meeting\, where we will learn more about the growing crisis\, and reflect on how to take action together. This meeting will have Closed Captions available. \nPlease register below to let us know you will participate and to receive further instructions on how to access the meeting.

SUMMARY:Building a City for All of Us: Affordable Housing Action
DESCRIPTION:With rising rents and limited housing availability\, more of us in Minneapolis are struggling to find and afford safe housing. We all feel the burden of higher costs of living\, and we recognize how increased housing costs have an outsized impact on renters with lower incomes\, often communities of color. Rents have risen nearly 17% since last year. \nNow is the time to raise our voices together in support of more funding for affordable housing and rental assistance so fewer families have to choose between rent and food\, or risk becoming homeless. Join us for this important event to learn more about what can be done – and how you can most effectively show your support. We need a city built for all of us! \nThis event will be hosted at Bethlehem Lutheran Church Twin Cities – Minneapolis Campus and can be viewed virtually on the day of the event.

SUMMARY:Rent is Due: Day of Action - 9/1/22
