Episcopalians for Positive Change

With the current and persistent wave of voter suppression, disenfranchisement, gerrymandering, and a conservative agenda in the form of Project 2025 that threatens to destroy democracy as we know it, this nonpartisan discussion aims to equip Episcopalians to become active agents in creating positive change this election season. Many are asking, “Where is the Church?” and “How can we become involved – legally and spiritually?” In a 1-hour session, members will be guided in the intricacies of a 501c3 and what chapters can and cannot do in this politically charged environment. Based on information gleaned prior to the session from UBE members, information will be shared on relevant sermon/forum topics, how to mount a registration drive in the parish, community, and on college campuses, and political engagement resources available through The Episcopal Church Office of Government Relations. Panelists include: The Rev. Kim L. Coleman, The Rev. Dr. Fayle Fisher-Stewart, Mr. Alan Yarborough, Roberta Todd and Carla Burns. Registration required.
