Merciful God, hear our cry for mercy in the wake of the tragedy in northern Israel. Reveal your presence in the midst of your people's tremendous suffering, and strengthen all who mourn. Amen.

Happy International Women's Day! Take action on a root cause of hunger- gender-based violence- by advocating for women and girls' safety. Encourage your representative to co-sponsor the Safe From The Start Act of 2021: https://t.co/PXK3eiRGb4

Alarmingly hate speech and violence is increasing against Asian Americans. ELCA we cannot be silent. Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders are our church. We are also neighbors, friends, family, colleagues. Assault against Asian Americans is an assault against all of us

#InternationalWomensDay celebrates progress in our global community, yet we know women & girls continue to face challenges, incl violence based on gender. Safe from Start Act H.R. 571 helps provide early interventions at onset of humanitarian emergencies. https://t.co/U2r1sXy1RX

Jan 25 saw an #ExecutiveOrder reverse the ban on transgender servicemembers. The ELCA "urges that society’s laws, policies&practices foster diversity... so that all may contribute their gifts to society, regardless of their gender” (ELCA #socialstatement Faith, Sexism & Justice)

“Nowhere is safe” is the judgement of women in Colombia https://t.co/1yu4as8TYY and another lockdown leaves women vulnerable.
Pray for safety. Pray for justice. Work to end rape and violence. #ThursdaysinBlack #WCC
