During Refugee Week, you can enjoy a free lunch at St Mary’s and get to grips with justice! Read on to discover more about our first ever Justice Cafe!
As the Easter Season comes to an end on Sunday with the Feast of Pentecost, the beginning of Lent seems so far back! Then we had embarked upon a Just Lent, exploring issues of social justice, and our response to injustice around the world and in our own communities.
At our Lent course, each week we explored a different area of social justice, from poverty to homelessness, from care of the environment to war and peace. We were able to measure in some way our present response, and explore how we can further strengthen what we can do. (You can look back at our Just Lent page here)
At the end of the five week course, it was suggested we establish a Justice Team to ensure that our observations are authentic and our response effective.
As we prepare for Refugee Week (June 19-25, 2023), we have scheduled our first JUSTICE CAFE on Tuesday 20 June at 1230pm at St Mary’s Church.
Anyone can join us for a free soup and salad lunch (or bring your own lunch, if you prefer – tea, coffee and soft drinks also provided. The soup will be suitable for vegans).
During lunch, we can share issues of concern and share with a wider audience some of the ways in which we are working with others in our community, and look for ways of working together to address issues, local and further afield.
Hopefully, from a bowl of soup, we will gain momentum to hold more Justice Cafes around the Ministry Area, and build relationships so that we can make a difference in the world.
Get in touch if you would like to find out more! You don’t have to book to attend but it would really help us with catering planning if you can let us know!
