As a church that believes in wide-eyed participation, we want to give you as many opportunities as possible to come alongside Jesus in the journey of reconciliation. That's why we offer weekly Do Some Good opportunities.
Please don't feel pressure to participate in everything, but we do hope that these posts give you an opportunity to plug in and serve the community at your capacity.
DO SOME GOOD
Today marks the end of Women's History Month, a dedicated observance recognizing and celebrating the contributions of women to American history and contemporary society, while highlighting their achievements and the ongoing struggle for equality. Women continue to lead our churches and sacred spaces, as they have throughout history. Today, we honor 12 women leading the church in 2025, working towards a beloved community and a just world: bit.ly/42p3S3V.
-We are exactly one week away from the @morejustice_ministry Rally! It is Monday, April 7th, at 6:00 pm at Shandon Presbyterian Church, 607 Woodrow Street. Doors open at 5:30 pm.
