United Church of Christ Webinar
Climate Migration: Responding with Faith, Care, and Equity
Wednesday, May 11 at 1:00 PM Eastern/12:00 PM Central

The next Creation Justice Webinar is entitled “Climate Migration: Responding with Faith, Care, and Equity.” According to a recent UN climate report, 20 million people have been displaced each year since 2008 due to extreme weather that is often exacerbated by the climate crisis. There is much we can do as people of faith in responding with deeply held values to this critical situation. To inform and guide us, this webinar will feature Drocella Mugorewera from Bridge Refugee Services, Tomas Matom Ramirez from the Indigenous Maya Ixil people, and the Rev. Irene Hassan from the UCC’s Minister of Refugee and Migration Services. Even if you can’t make the scheduled time of 1 pm ET on Wednesday, May 11th, still sign-up, and we will send you a recording. Register here!

PS: In case you missed it, the keynote and the panel discussion are now available for the recent digital event entitled “The Faith of the Prophets: Addressing the Climate Crisis.”
