SUMMARY:Intentionally Placed Conference
DESCRIPTION:A CONFERENCE FOR ALL WOMEN!! \nWe are professionals\, parents\, daughters\, wives\, and friends\, and as Christian women\, we’re called to live out our faith daily. Given our current culture\, our faith may either align or conflict with the spheres in which we move.  \nAnd\, whether we realize it or not\, we’ve been intentionally placed where we are. The Intentionally Placed conference is an opportunity for us to understand our unique role and God’s call to embrace His purpose for us. \nGod calls us women to be problem-solvers\, bridge-builders\, and healers. For this conference\, we’ve assembled a line-up of experienced leaders working in education\, government\, finance\, non-profits\, and other industries who are following God’s call to impact the world.  \nJoin us on October 2nd for an all-day conference tackling topics on racial reconciliation\, biblical sexuality\, relationships\, and Christian identity. These will be thought-provoking calls to action to engage in what God wants to do through you.  \nFOR SCHEDULE\, REGISTRATION & MORE INFORMATION GO TO: Intentionally Placed

SUMMARY:Groups for Spiritual Community and Discipleship in the Workplace
DESCRIPTION:“What Would Happen If You Were Enchanted With Jesus?”  \nThe question above is one that we ask in our small groups because we know just how easy it is to fall into “knowing things about Jesus” instead of having a highly interactive quality of life with Jesus. \nSeeing beyond flimsy mental images of him that don’t affect you in the ways that you’d hope for\, and instead of being truly stunned by what he’s actually capable of doing to you and to others. Becoming invigorated with joy as you realize how powerful he is\, confident that he’s here with you right now\, ready to engage with the difficult thoughts and feelings that you can’t seem to get far enough away from.  \nIf you’ve chosen to be a student of Jesus\, you’re invited to enter a life immersed in the peace and joy of Christ\, but if you’re like many of us\, you’re motivated by the idea of following Jesus\, but then another path comes into view and seems like it’s offering something better only a few minutes later. Most of us have a major problem with maintaining a clear vision of what’s most important\, and beyond that\, actively cultivating the habits that would keep us focused on that vision when something else blocks it from view.  Imagine how it would feel if you were completely unmotivated to hold onto unhealthy thoughts and actions that currently drain your energy\, and instead\, you actively wanted to pour your energy into things that would make a positive difference in your life and in the lives of others around you.  \nIf you’re interested in progressively learning how to become immersed in all of the good things that Jesus wants to give to you\, consider joining one of our discipleship groups happening in/near your workplace. \nStarting in September\, we will meet once every two weeks on a weekday morning at specific locations downtown (as well as on Zoom)\, and while this is a low time commitment on your schedule\, we want these times together to be very encouraging to one another and impactful to making a significant change in our lives. More thorough explanations\, group details\, and thoughts from current group members can be found at  https://www.cruboston.com/workplaceconnect. \nIf this sounds like something you’re curious about\, feel free to email me at todd.humphreys@cru.org

SUMMARY:Covid-19 Faith in the Vaccine Student Ambassador Program
DESCRIPTION:The Hebrew College Miller Center for Interreligious Learning is proud to announce that we will be joining IFYC’s National Student Effort to increase access and trust in the vaccine. In partnership with Turn In. Reach Out.\, We Got Us and The Black Boston Covid-19 Coalition\, we will be coordinating and leading the Covid-19 Faith in the Vaccine Student Ambassador Program targeted towards increasing vaccine access and trust in Boston area communities.  \nOur goal is to compensate community members for investing time and energy into the frontlines work of building the movement towards equity and healing amidst Covid-19. The Faith in the Vaccine initiative incentivizes 28 Students to work as Vaccine Ambassadors\, getting paid $15.00 – $17.50 an hour to contribute 100 hours to work on the effort to get folks vaccinated. Our team includes Boston area nonprofits and coalitions like We Got Us and the Black Boston Covid-19 Coalition that are able to lead our cohort from their position at the front lines of this work. \nThis pandemic has reminded us that no one is safe until everyone is safe. Closing the wound from this pandemic requires that a critical number of us get vaccinated in order to reach herd immunity. We must lift one another up in this journey and encourage one another along this road. The Faith in the Vaccine Student Ambassador program provides supportive structure and scaffolding for Student Ambassadors to make the connections and have the conversations that result in getting more shots into people’s arms. \nHigh-Schoolers\, undergraduates\, graduate students and recent graduates are all eligible to apply. Members of the local Boston community that are already invested in this type of work as a volunteer are highly encouraged to apply. Please see the attached program overview and flyer and apply by May 17th! Email kimbress@bu.edu with any questions\, ideas or potential partnership opportunities.

SUMMARY:Tutors Needed for Local Schools and Afterschool Programs
DESCRIPTION:Even though it feels like the end of the school year is approaching\, there are still many weeks of learning left for students in our area. With the ever-shifting situation in schools regarding remote learning and in-person return of students to classrooms\, the Boston Education Collaborative (BEC) tries to stay up-to-date with our partnering schools and programs regarding their volunteer needs. \n\n\n\nPlease see the attached flyer and help share it out with your friends\, congregation\, and networks. The BEC is still accepting volunteers to help schools and afterschool programs. Remote tutoring is still needed in both spaces. However\, our partnering schools and programs in Boston and Chelsea have been expressing a need for in-person support as well. You can imagine the challenges for teachers and staff to run classes that have to be mindful of social distancing rules and for school teachers to teach to a group of students in person and another group online at the same time. \n\n\n\nWith the last three months\, we would love to do a final push for volunteers to help these teachers and students finish the school year strong and maximize learning time. Please help to share this and consider volunteering too – Click Here to Download a PDF Flyer to Share. \n\n\n\nInterested? \n\nIn-Person Tutoring Information – Click Here\nVirtual/Remote Tutoring Information – Click Here\nAttend an Information Session – Click Here\nTo sign up\, fill out this form

SUMMARY:UB Dialogue Workshop: Skills for Bridging the Divide
DESCRIPTION:Are you dismayed by deep differences in your congregation or its surrounding community\, and the way we seem to speak “at” each other rather than “with” one another?

UniteBoston is offering a free\, brief\, virtual workshop introducing dialogue skills for bridging divides that you can implement in your own context.

SUMMARY:UB's "Be the Bridge for Boston" Spring Groups
DESCRIPTION:At UniteBoston\, we recognize the need to address the sin of racism and the pervasive inequities that persist in our city and nation. We recognize that justice is not peripheral\, but intrinsic to the gospel\, and Christians should be leading the way in the movement towards racial justice today.  \nLast fall\, UniteBoston launched a “Be the Bridge” Zoom group\, where 28 people engaged in weekly conversation with Latasha Morrison’s “Be the Bridge” curriculum. We have heard that there are at least 9 other Boston-area churches that have utilized racial justice curriculum\, and this spring\, we are seeking to build on this momentum together across churches. The goal for this spring is to help people  understand various initiatives that are happening in Greater Boston towards systemic racial justice and to nurture friendships across churches for accountability and support in actively working towards reconciliation\, equity\, and justice in our day-to-day lives. \nWe will be hosting a bimonthly speaker series from February to June with locally-focused resources and speakers who are working in a particular aspect of justice (education\, housing\, incarceration/police reform\, economics) to share with the group. Each session will include a 20-minute presentation\, followed by Q & A\, practical action steps\, and prayer. This speaker series is open to the public for anyone to join (1 hour total) \nFollowing the speaker\, there will be small groups that will meet for 30 minutes with people who have committed to attending the four speaker series talks and meeting at least one other time per month for support and accountability in living out God’s call for racial justice in our day-to-day lives. \nGroup size is approximately 8-10 people with intentional diversity given to age\, race\, gender\, denomination\, etc. We may form themed groups based on different communities where individuals are seeking to implement racial justice (workplace\, church\, family/friends\, school\, neighborhood) \nThe “Be the Bridge for Boston” groups are open to anyone who has done significant introductory racial justice learning/work with Be the Bridge or another program. If you are looking for more of an introductory learning group on racial justice\, email Rev. Kelly (kelly@uniteboston.com) to find out about other introductory groups that are taking place. \nWe are also looking for small group leaders who have experience leading these types of spaces. This is an opportunity to join a team of leaders across churches who are working towards racial justice. You can indicate your interest in this opportunity in the sign-up form. \n \n  We are currently recruiting for participants to join\, as well as a diverse team of leaders for the groups. \nClick here for a PDF summary of the “Be the Bridge for Boston” groups \nClick here to sign up! The last day to sign up is Friday January 29th.
