Sisters, beware of environments where men fear women more than they fear God.

Tuesday Commissioner Grieb made a check presentation of $500,000 in targeted recovery effort dollars to help us convert a local, hotel into affordable apt units. Housing continues to be a critical need & this will help provide more of our neighbors with a safe place to call home!

When young people are harmed - directly or indirectly - emotionally, mentally, physically, or spiritually, we cannot just go on as if nothing happened. We must hold space for pain to be noticed and named. Only then can those individuals be nurtured towards the journey of healing.

In light of the events at the clergy session of the Florida Annual Conference, we will be postponing our workshop on Gen Z and Mental Health. We are doing this in part to offer an example of HOW to respond to traumatic events that occur in the lives of young people.

[Hope Partnership @hpcfl]

On this day, 9 years ago, we opened the Hope Center! It's been an incredible experience serving our neighbors over the past (almost) decade. Thank you to everyone who has made our work possible as we continue to empower our neighbors, strengthen our community, and build hope!

That was scarier than a Southern Baptist Convention.

Implicit bias, micro-agressions, a mentality of scarcity or one of generosity can all be parts of our socialization. Watch this brief video from the NEA about some of these forms of socialization & their root in Supremacy. https://t.co/BF2peculnu #BHM2022 #Hope192 #EquityMatters

NOBODY WANTS TO LIVE IN ENCAMPMENTS OVER HOUSING.

People live in encampments because they would rather live there than crowded shelters or on a park bench exposed to the elements.

Encampments do not have "amenities", they address an urgent survival need.

[Lura Groen @lura_groen]

This isn’t new or original.

But I can’t stop thinking about how people who did my exact job just 50 years ago came home to a clean house and dinner made and clean laundry and doctors appointments managed.

The way I’d be kicking ass…..
