The Justice and Social Concerns Ministry team is hosting a lunch and presentation following worship by Ann and Larry Barber on Sunday, November 21st. They will be talking about the struggle for justice at the border between Mexico and Texas and their personal experiences during their trip this last February. They will be giving us an update about the important work of the Methodist Church in Texas and Mexico helping those caught in the crossfire of controversy. Once again, the Barbers remind us of the important work by the Methodist church and our congregation outside our walls of our church building.
