Who Are We Called to Be?
Infusing Social Justice Themes into our Music Ministry
Sunday, November 15, 2020, 7 :00 pm on Zoom
Many of us find ourselves seeking ways to respond in our music ministry to both the Gospel message and the “moment” in which we find ourselves, a period of extreme social division and upheaval. At this time when it seems judicious to choose the virtual over in-person gatherings, the Board of Suffolk AGO wanted to provide an opportunity for members and friends to come together and explore ways that we can challenge ourselves to incorporate messages of equity and inclusion into our gospel-driven work and worship. We are delighted that two outstanding practitioners will be helping us to explore the topic, providing concrete guidance, helpful resources, and worshipful inspiration.
