Disciples Mission Week


Disciples Mission Week has three great facets: education/awareness, day of volunteering, and celebration/worship.

1) Attend webinars Tuesday-Friday evenings at 6:30 to learn about various justice issues.

  • Food Insecurity — with Rev. Dr. Heber Brown III (Black Church Food Security Network), turning sacred land into gardens that feed communities

  • Healthcare Equity — with Rev. Dr. Starsky Wilson (Children's Defense Fund)

  • Housing Insecurity — with Heart of the Rockies Christian Church, a Justice & Creation ministry site that hosted one of our Fellows

  • Disability Equity — with Revs. Dr. Topher Endress, Milton Keys & Sarah Lund

Mid-America clergy who attend all four webinars and submit a reflection paper of at least 750 words to Associate Regional Minister Rev. Angela Williams can earn renewal credit for their anti-racism training. Learn more and register here>
