As long as we live in this world of haves and have not, we need public theologians like Rev. Dr. James Lawson. This is our truest legacy as Methodists. This for me is a fresh and faithful expression of our faith.
"I have seen people change as a consequence of my own witness and the witness of the church and the struggle."

The Civil Rights Pastor Who Declared ‘I Am a Man’ James Lawson was a Civil Rights icon who saw the need for the fight to include economic inequality. He also unintentionally doomed King by inviting him to Memphis.

We pray for the families of those who drowned in the tragedy of the collapse of the Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore. They were immigrants from El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico doing what they always do-working to make us better.
WE REMEMBER THEM!

Celebramos nuestro colega y miembro de nuestro Comite del The National Plan for Hispanic/Latino Ministry en su nuevo nombramiento en North Carolina Conference of the United Methodist Church!

Ismael Ruiz-Millán, current Heritage District Superintendent, will transition to Executive Director of Connectional Ministries (DCM) following the retirement of Home Missioner Steve Taylor after 23 years of faithful leadership as DCM (2015-24) and Director of Outreach Ministries (2001-15).

El miércoles de cenizas nos habré una puerta donde comenzamos un camino de auto-refleccion y arrepentimiento. Tambien es la oportunidad de recordarnos de nuestra fragilidad humana, la tuya y la mía y la posibilidad de ser mas compresivos al saber que todos y todas somos polvo y al polvo hemos de regresar. Así que atrévete a abrir la puerta y comienza tu jornada.

Ash Wednesday opens up a door where we begin a journey of self-reflection and repentance. It is also an opportunity to remember our human fragility, yours and mine. And offers the possibility to be more compassionate to one another knowing that we are all dust and to dust we shall we return. So, I dare you to open the door and start your journey.

No se olvidé de nuestra reunión hoy!!! Nos vemos.
