Join Pastor Tanner as she moderates this important discussion!

Join us next Tuesday, 8/25 at 7:30pm EST for our next Organize and Resist call. Come share and discuss how can you and your congregation can support justice for Palestine - in this moment, this election season, during Advent and beyond.

Leading our discussion will be two pastors with long histories of working with socially active and committed congregations, Rev. Dr. Leah Davis and Rev. William Young IV.

This Sunday Team Lakeshore will Ride for Palestine in support of Middle East Children's Alliance (MECA), a long-time partner of our congregation. MECA has staff in the West Bank, Gaza and Lebanon, working to address the critical needs of children in these war-torn lands. As our government continues to wage war and fund genocide, we will continue to work for a just peace for all who live in the Middle East.
