SUMMARY:Explore DMin Webinar: Women in Leadership Track
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar on the Doctor of Ministry track in Women in Leadership led by Dr. Jana Holiday and Dr. Emily Gierer on Thursday\, September 17\, at 12 p.m. (ET). \nIn a time when female ministry leaders often face loneliness and isolation in their professional lives\, this program is designed to equip women serving in church\, parachurch\, and educational contexts to lead with spiritual depth\, theological clarity\, and practical skill. \nRooted in Scripture and shaped by the global church\, this track draws on a rich biblical heritage of women who led with courage and faithfulness—from Miriam\, Deborah\, and Huldah in the Old Testament to Mary\, Phoebe\, Priscilla\, and Junia in the New. \nDuring the webinar\, Dr. Holiday and Dr. Gierer will provide an introduction to the DMin program and application process and a presentation of this track.

SUMMARY:What Every Christian Leaders Should Know about Christian Nationalism before the Election
DESCRIPTION:What Every Christian Leaders Should Know about Christian Nationalism before the Election: A Presentation and Discussion with the Western States Center and Massachusetts Council of Churches.\n\nOver the past few election cycles\, Christian nationalism has become a powerful force\, shaping discourse in American political life across school boards\, college campuses\, legislative races and more. Groups like Turning Point USA\, Proud Boys\, NSC-131\, among others\, have gained power and influence in local communities\, including churches\, in both explicit and subtle ways. As of this year\, nearly 1/3 of Americans identify as Christian Nationalists.\n\nHow can Christian leaders identify these various ideologies\, tactics\, and recruitment strategies in our communities? How do we respond effectively? As a corrupt ideology in support of authoritarianism\, Christian nationalism is not new in the United States \, but these current forces require us to learn the new ways they are being deployed.\n\nJoin the experts at the Western States Center and your hosts the Massachusetts Council of Churches as we learn together and discuss what can be done in our local settings. Our expert presenters will share how the tactics of Christian Nationalists manifested in not only faith organizing\, but in education\, elections\, and general community engagement. For the safety and security of our participants\, this online event will not be recorded\, and registration is required. Please join us as we strategize to spread Christ’s true message of love and unity for all.\n\nREGISTER HERE.

SUMMARY:Reparations and Community Repair
DESCRIPTION:WHAT WE PROPOSE HAPPENS NEXT BRJC outlines six immediate steps to move Boston’s reparations process forward \nBOSTON\, MA – As Boston’s reparations process enters an important new phase following the cancellation of a portion of its historical research\, the Boston Reparative Justice Coalition (BRJC)\, through the Reparations Now! Campaign for Boston\, is releasing a six-step community proposal focused on completing unfinished work\, strengthening descendant participation\, and providing residents with a clearer path from historical research to recommendations and implementation. \nOn September 2\, community activist and American Freedman Aja Jackson wrote in the Bay State Banner that Boston must stop studying reparations and start delivering them. Since then\, the urgency has increased: the Tufts-led portion of the historical research was cancelled\, the full $335\,000 contract amount was returned to the City\, and the separate Northeastern research covering 1940-2020 is complete and under review. \nWith several community proposals and timelines now circulating\, BRJC believes residents should have a clear understanding of what is already underway\, what remains incomplete\, and what additional steps could help move the existing work toward completion. \n“The City must document the facts\, and the community must document what those facts did to our families\,” said Jackson. “The goal is not to replace professional research with testimony. It is to make sure descendant evidence can help identify records\, add context\, reveal gaps\, and show the generational impact of documented public actions.” \nWHAT WE PROPOSE HAPPENS NEXT \n\nComplete the missing historical research. Finish the factual record from the 1600s-1940 with rigorous documentation of policies\, institutions\, properties\, displacement\, economic losses\, government actions\, and other identifiable harms wherever records allow.\nRelease the completed 1940-2020 research for public review. Residents should be able to read the findings\, understand the evidence\, ask questions\, and identify gaps or areas requiring further examination.\nOpen a structured descendant testimony and evidence period. American Freedmen and descendants of people enslaved in the United States should have a clear\, consent-based way to submit family histories\, addresses\, property records\, photographs\, deeds\, oral histories\, business records\, employment histories\, and other evidence.\nConnect community testimony to professional research. Family testimony should help researchers identify missing records\, corroborate documented harms\, provide context\, and reveal impacts that may not appear in government files.\nComplete the economic analysis and connect documented harms to possible remedies. Once the historical and family records are assembled\, Boston can more clearly evaluate the scale and continuing effects of documented harms and organize remedy options for consideration.\nMove to public recommendations and an implementation timetable. The community should know when research ends\, when recommendations will be presented\, how the Mayor will respond\, and what the next steps toward implementation will be.\nCOMPLETE THE FACTUAL RECORD. BUILD THE DESCENDANT RECORD. CONNECT THE EVIDENCE TO THE HARM.\n\nINFORM THE REPAIR. \nCOMMUNITY GATHERING \nREPARATIONS NOW! Community Meeting\, Briefing & Organizing Session – Friday\, September 25\, 2026\, 6:00-7:30 PM\, in front of the Shaw-Dudley Library\, 149 Dudley Street\, Roxbury. Residents are encouraged to bring family names\, Boston addresses\, property information\, photographs\, records\, and the stories they know.
