Just Congregations

The Tikkun Olam Center is about to launch an exciting new initiative with Just Congregations. A transformative social justice model based on the principles of community organizing, Just Congregations aims to strengthen congregations by building relationships among members and combating injustice in the community by training congregants to build relationships with other local organizations to help bring about change. To begin this process, Rabbi Jonah Pesner of the Reform Movement’s Just Congregations Program spoke at the Temple to help us to organize community meetings to determine what issues mean the most to our congregants. Next we will hold small meetings in congregants' homes. If you are interested in becoming involved please contact: Kellee Van Aken, kellee.vanaken@verizon.net or Harry Back, harryback@verizon.net.
