Advocacy Training January 25th

Join us for an advocacy training session, Jan. 25, 12:15-2:00 p.m. in the Plymouth Fireside room.

All are welcome to take their activism to the next level by attending training at Plymouth by local organizers on how to be an effective messenger on social justice legislation. We'll learn effective techniques and strategies to get our voices heard in the political arena.

Then take your training and message to your legislators at the State Capitol on Feb. 3 for the Joint Religious Legislative Coalition Day on the Hill. You'll be among thousands of faith-based activists speaking out on social justice issues. Register at www.jrlc.org

Join these Advocacy events and plug into a network of people transforming our community. Plymouth Advocacy links our faith with action by organizing for the common good. We're non-partisan, seeing furthering justice as a realization of the Kingdom of God.

What is your burning concern for your community today? Clean water? Access to health care? Education? Host a letter writing table at Plymouth and invite folks in Guild Hall. Ask people to Take Five minutes to be a voice for justice in your area of concern. For all the steps needed to host a Take Five letter writing table, find the "Take Five Steps for Success" tips here.

On Wednesday, Dec. 10 at 5:30PM the Plymouth advocacy working group meets over dinner to consider what is possible for faith-based, grassroots organizing at Plymouth. Hear about Day on the Hill when faith communities advocate legislation to policy makers. Brainstorm for a Coffee and Conversation series on activism and policy shaping. What ideas do you have?
