Occupy and the Church

Thursday, January 12, 2012 - 6:30pm

What is the role of the church in the Occupy movement?  Occupy has shined  a glaring light on the shameful and crippling wealth disparity in this country. This wealth disparity does not stand alone; it creates as well a democracy disparity.

What does this have to do with the church?  Please join in a discussion of these issues. Leaders for this discussion are Jeffrey Weiss, (Catholic Peace Ministry) and Kathleen McQuillen (American Friends Service Committee).
