SUMMARY:Looking Back to Move Forward: Stories from the Boston Sankofa Journey
DESCRIPTION:Join us as our Boston Sankofa Journey members reflect on nine months of exploring Boston’s historical landmarks tied to the legacy of slavery\, the Black freedom movement\, and the role of churches in both supporting and resisting slavery. Through personal stories and creative storytelling\, they will share transformative moments and how they are carrying these experiences forward.\n\nThis event invites you to engage in a journey of truth-telling\, healing\, and justice\, connecting our narratives to Boston’s local history. Recognizing that many other leaders are engaged in similar work within their institutions\, we’ll also open a dialogue on how we might strengthen the collective movement toward racial equity\, justice and repair in our city. \nThis gathering will take place at the Historic Myrtle Baptist Church\, a hub for social justice and civil rights advocacy and a cornerstone of Newton’s African American community. You are welcome to come early to explore the physical displays where they have catalogued their history. \nSankofa\, a Ghanaian term meaning “to learn from the past to inform the future\,” inspires this journey. Come listen\, share\, and be part of this meaningful conversation and action-taking at this influential moment in our city and country. \n\nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Week of Prayer for Christian Unity 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is an international initiative where Christians worldwide are reminded of Jesus’ prayer for his disciples that “they may be one so that the world may believe” (John 17:21). Locally\, UniteBoston coordinates evening collaborative gatherings of fellowship\, prayer and worship from January 18-25 annually. \nThis Year’s Theme: In 2025\, Christians mark the 1\,700th anniversary of the First Ecumenical Council at Nicaea\, where key doctrinal disputes about the Trinity and the nature of Christ were resolved\, resulting in the Nicene Creed—a foundational statement of Christian faith and unity. The Nicene Creed is the Christian “symbol” of agreed doctrine and also the statement of faith for UniteBoston. This commemoration invites Christians to celebrate what unites them through the Creed while reflecting on the divisions that still persist today. \n \n\n\n \n\n\nClick above to watch a reflection on the significance of the Nicene Creed from Dr. Elizabeth M. Woodard\, Catholic theologian\, musician\, author\, speaker\, spiritual director\, and ecumenist. She is a member of our Christian unity cohort and considers her vocation as bringing people to God and to each other. \n \n\n\n\n\n\nMark Your Calendars – You are invited to mark your calendars and plan to attend the evening gatherings! In this time of Epiphany\, we encourage you to receive the manifestation of Jesus Christ through those of different denominations\, ethnic backgrounds and cultures. Let’s make the most of these opportunities in order to truly be the family of God and serve as the body of Christ in the world. Let’s also pray with our feet – consider how our beliefs can come together in common action and witness. \n\n\n\nSpread the Word – We also appreciate help spreading the word to people in your congregation\, family\, friends\, and neighbors. A personal invitation goes a long way. \n\n\n\nCalling to mind our common commitment to ‘love thy neighbor\,’ may the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity\, January 18-25\, 2025 be full of moments of conversion of heart through our encounters\, so that “all may be one.” \n\n\n\nResources for Your Week of Prayer Experience from The Initiative:\nLitany for Christian Unity \nDaily Prayer Guide \nPDF Schedule for the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity  \nIntroduction on the Theme from Greymoor Ecumenical & Interreligious Initiative \n\nSchedule for Gatherings in Boston & New England\nSaturday January 18 – Christian Unity Prayer Service \n11:00am to 1:00pm at Noroton Presbyterian Church\, 2011 Post Road\, Darien CT \nJoin pastoral leaders in Connecticut for liturgical prayer using the International Week of Prayer for Christian Unity worship service. \nSunday January 19 – Love Casts Out Fear: An Inauguration Eve Vigil \n5:00 to 7:00pm at the Cathedral Church of St. Paul\, 138 Tremont St. Downtown Boston\, MA 02111 or via the Cathedral’s YouTube Channel \nJoin Episcopal Bishop Julia E.

SUMMARY:Jesus: Savior\, Healer\, Friend
DESCRIPTION:Join women from Boston and New England at our 3rd collaborative conference. Jesus: Savior\, Healer\, Friend is an event that will focus squarely on the person of Jesus. As Savior\, Jesus died on the cross so that we would be reconciled to God and live a life of abundance in this world. He also knew that this world is temporary and that there is another one that we can look forward to where there is no suffering or pain. As our Healer\, Jesus restores the broken places in our souls\, the traumas\, and the deep wounds we’ve experienced. By his stripes we are healed\, the Bible says. As our Friend\, Jesus promises to never leave us or forsake us. In Him\, we have his guarantee that we will never be alone through the ups and downs of life. \nIf you’ve never experienced life lived for Jesus\, we especially invite you to join us. You will not be disappointed. \nCome and let’s experience together everything that Jesus is and promises to us. \nRegister Here.

SUMMARY:BOSTON REPARATIONS AND THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE FAITH COMMUNITY
DESCRIPTION:*New time and location* \nJoin us as we dive deeper into the path toward reparations for Black Boston and the faith community’s role in this important journey. Since The New Democracy Coalition’s 2018 call for reparations\, efforts have led to a historic apology in 2022 by Boston City Council and Mayor Wu for the city’s role in the slave trade. This apology initiated the creation of the Boston Reparations Task Force in 2023. \nOur next step is establishing a community-led Boston Reparations Commission comprised of activists\, clergy\, and residents committed to justice and reparative action. This commission will serve to educate\, inform\, and mobilize Bostonians on the issue of reparations. \nDate: Saturday\, November 23\, 2024\nTime: 1:00 PM\nLocation: Codman Square Public Library\, 690 Washington Street\, Dorchester \nFeatured Panelists: \n\nRev. Carrington Moore\, Executive Director of Common Cathedral\nDanielle Jones Williams\, Director of Prophetic Resistance Boston\nRev. Dr. Savina Martin\, Public Theologian with the Poor People’s Campaign Mass\nRev. Valerie Kim Copeland\, Pastor of Neighborhood Church of Dorchester\n\nAll are invited to join us for this month’s meeting—a chance to learn\, discuss\, and contribute to meaningful change. \nMore info here.
