Our next Field Trip Sunday will be November 18, to the Community United Church of Christ. Pastor Mike Mulberry has been working closely with members of the Channing-Murray community as of late, as he spearheads the local New Sanctuary Movement to fight for just and humane refoms to our nation's immigration policy. I got to chat with Rev. Mike at a recent NSM house party, and I was delighted and intrigued by how deeply he ties his social justice work to his Christian ministry, and the patience and perseverence he expresses in pursuing that work. I look forward to getting to better know him and his congregation.

Please join me in visiting our peers in the fight for social justice, worshipping with them at 10:15 followed by fellowship at 11:30. For more information, please email minister@revjack.com--or just meet us at the UCC!

Following our visit, we will reconvene at the Channing-Murray at 1pm for our monthly Open Mic Worship. Yes, once again, it's a Pirate Double Feature Sunday! So join on in, see how others in our community worship and show us how you worship. Hope to see you there!
