Greater Red Bank Women’s Initiative Rally – January 21st
Let’s unite in solidarity with all of those gathering across the nation on the day
after the Inauguration. The Greater Red Bank Women’s Initiative is hosting a peaceful
non-partisan gathering on Saturday, January 21st from 3-5 p.m. in Riverside Garden
Park in solidarity with those most affected by intolerance. Together we will send
a message to our leaders that America stands for values of human decency, equal
rights, climate justice, and freedom from discrimination. The rally is organized
 by women, but ALL ARE WELCOME!

Special Sunday Offering
Human Relations Day
When we give towards the Human Relations Day collection, we are supporting community
outreach, social justice and work with at-risk youth. One hundred percent of every
donation goes straight  to the marginalized, the disenfranchised and the ones at risk.
Here’s the breakdown:
-57% is allocated to the Community Developers Program, which supports racial-ethnic
congregations and communities engaged in social justice through advocacy.
-33% is allocated to the United Methodist Voluntary Services Program, which
helps promote and provide relationships with local community organizations.
-10% is allocated to the Youth Offender Rehabilitation Program, which works
with at-risk youth to prevent problems and helps convicted youth redirect their
lives.
I hope you’ll consider giving on this Special Sunday. It’s our opportunity to make
systemic changes that allow our communities to provide incredible services.
