Church of The Sojourners

This is from our Advent Reading today in "The Death of Race: Building a New Christianity in a Racial World" by Brian Bantum.

Here at Church of the Sojourners, we read something together for Advent. This year we're reading Brian Bantum's The Death of Race: Building a New Christianity in a Racial World. In it, Brian writes about the incarnation and how it redeems our bodies. It is a helpful, beautifully written, timely book. If you have any interest in reading with us, check out the link below for a reading schedule. https://churchofthesojourners.org/adventread/

Thank God for seven radical elders who show us the way toward reconciliation, justice, and the beloved community. And thanks to Reba Place Fellowship for putting these stories into a book!

Great news! Three churches have joined with Reba Place Church to sponsor the Resolution For Justice in the U.S. Criminal Legal System to MennoCon21, the bi-ann...ual Convention of Mennonite Church USA! Hooray for the joint efforts of Reba Place Church, Living Water Community Church (Chicago), Church of the Sojourners (San Francisco, CA) and Shalom Community Church (Ann Arbor, MI) to help put these issues of justice on the agenda of our faith group! The Resolution is now in the hands of the MC USA Executive Board and Resolution Committee, who will decide whether to advance it for the church delegates' consideration at MennoCon21 in July. #mennocon21 https://docs.google.com//1px666OLhsdAGNtUcFhfzaBU6zo/edit photo credit Logan Weaver on Unsplash See more

We're so proud of one of our members, Jenny Prosa, who through her artful photos helps us see the wonder of our neighborhood and city. https://churchofthesojourners.org/missiondistrict/
