#EpiscopalChurch & #PoorPeoplesCampaign


40 Days for Justice Begins

The Executive Council of the Episcopal Church, at its January meeting called the whole Church enter into “action, ministry, and official relationship” with the Poor People’s Campaign, a faith-based movement serving the least and most vulnerable among us."
