Love Mercy Do Justice-xx to Host Solidarity Event

CHICAGO (June 4, 2020)—As the country grieves the killing of George Floyd, civil unrest, and anti-black racism the church cries out, “How long, O Lord?”

In the Evangelical Covenant Church, we take seriously our call to practice solidarity with all sisters and brothers. In humility, we ask, “In what ways are we standing with and advocating for the Multiethnic Mosaic? How are we sharing in the suffering of others both individually and as community?”

Join us Friday, June 5, at 1:00 Eastern time (12:00 Central) as we respond to the call of solidarity in an extensive online event, hosted by a range of Covenant voices, including Michelle Clifton-Soderstrom, Dominique Gilliard, Evelyn Johnson, Soong-Chan Rah, Paul Robinson, T.J. Smith, John Wenrich, and more.
To participate, join us on Facebook here.
