SUMMARY:Rent is Due: Day of Action - 8/3/20
DESCRIPTION:Please register below to join us for the August 3 Rent is Due: Day of Action. \nWe know that hundreds of thousands of our neighbors struggle to pay their rent every first of the month. This is disproportionately true for Black\, Brown\, and Indigenous families due to economic inequities stemming from centuries of historical injustice. As a state and as a community\, we have the resources to make sure all people have a home. We need to unite together to advocate for emergency rental assistance for immediate relief from the COVID pandemic and the current economic downturn\, and also work for long-term repair by creating a Minnesota rent subsidy program\, Bring It Home\, MN. \nOn Monday\, August 3\, we will join together at 8:30 a.m. for a thirty-minute update meeting\, where we will go over instructions on how to take action together. Please register below to let us know you will participate and to receive further instructions on how to access the meeting. \nWe are committed to holding a Rent is Due: Day of Action every month\, so please mark your calendars for the rest of the year. We plan on having this event the first of the month\, except when it lands on the weekend. \nWe look forward to joining with you on August 3. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Beacon Academy: How to Build a Beacon Leadership Team

Beacon organizers have over 50 years of organizing experience – including the creation and support of leadership teams. We all know how important it is to align our efforts to achieve our audacious vision of “all people have a home” and we know that the leadership team is the vehicle for how our congregations work to build power together. Creating a leadership team is as much of an art as a science…join us as we share of the essential tools of creating a powerful team ready to engage your congregation in the crucial work of addressing affordable housing and homelessness. \n

SUMMARY:Scott and Carver Regional Assembly: The future of FMF\, Prairie Pointe\, and the housing crisis
DESCRIPTION:Scott and Carver Regional Assembly: The future of FMF\, Prairie Pointe\, and the housing crisis \nJoin almost a dozen congregations from the Southwest collaborative for a virtual meeting as we provide updates and action steps for the future of Families Moving Forward in Scott and Carver Counties\, Prairie Pointe\, and addressing the wave of evictions facing over 250\,000 of our neighbors across Minnesota. We are leading a campaign to change the story around housing and homeless in our communities and organizing for the solutions we need to match the crisis through the “Closer to Home Campaign” \nWe believe that God has given us what we need to thrive\, that we live in a world of abundance\, and that we don’t need to cut one human need for the other. We believe that no matter who you are\, where you live\, who you pray to\, or what you look like\, everyone should have a place to call home at the end of the day. \nJoin us on Thursday\, August 20 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. as we come together to ensure that everyone who calls our communities home has the ability to access and afford one of their own. \n
