Upcoming Advocacy & Action Events
Trinity Cares Reflection and Action: Racial Justice & Education Group
Second Wednesdays, 6:30–7:30pm, via Zoom
In response to racial violence and turmoil in summer 2020, Trinity Cares members gathered to share their stories, reflect together, and discuss ways to take action together for social justice.
The Education group meets for reflection, sharing and to explore ways to make a positive impact on racial injustice in the area of child and adult education. We will review resources, plan projects and search for ways to support existing work.
Prison Ministry
Trinity’s parishioner-led Prison Ministry advocates for social justice reform of prisons and incarceration and supports fair reentry processes and opportunities for those returning home. We engage in direct communication to uplift the spirits of those incarcerated, letting them know they have a loving community in our ministry and are not forgotten. All are welcome to join our monthly meetings, hear from speakers on social justice and criminal justice reform topics, and learn about opportunities to get involved with our work.
Upcoming Meetings:
Environmental Justice Ministry Group
Second Monday of every month, 6pm, Online
The Environmental Justice ministry group examines and acts around the most pressing problems of climate change and environmental justice, through the lens of faith.
Monday, June 10: Resources and Justice Around the World
At this month’s meeting, long-time Trinity parishioners Cindy Jay and David Ward will talk about what they have learned about environmentalism and justice on their recent world travels.
Cindy will speak about how the people of the sparsely populated country of Iceland rely on their plentiful environmental resources, with a focus on the intersection of science, nature, and spirituality. David will describe water shortages and post-Apartheid economic inequity in western South Africa, particularly in Cape Town, Hermanus, and the township of Zwelihle.
This presentation will be followed by an important discussion to gather input and idea for Environmental Justice Group presenters in 2024–2025. Please bring your suggestions!
Sacred Ground
Created by The Episcopal Church, Sacred Ground is a film- and readings-based dialogue series on race, grounded in faith. In a small group, we will engage a curriculum that walks through chapters of America’s history of race and racism, weaving in threads of family story, economic class, and political and regional identity.
Reach out to Ruth Frey to learn more about future Sacred Ground cohorts. Note that in-person attendance at Trinity Commons will be required at select sessions.
