AMOS Update

Posted on December 01, 2011

CSOA continues to be a congregation member of AMOS (Advocating, Mobilizing, Organizing in Solidarity), and on Sunday, November 20, five CSOA families attended AMOS’s fourth anniversary celebration at Our Saviors Lutheran Church. The theme of the dinner, in a talk by LaDonna Redmond, who is from the Institute for Agricultural Trade Policy, was “Food + Justice = Democracy.” AMOS is involved with food insecurity, community clergy caucus, healthcare access, restorative justice, Hmong community advocacy issues, and the winter warming center at First Baptist Church on Main Street and West Avenue. Many CSOA families are involved with social action themselves, but if you have an issue that could be a congregation activity, please contact Richard Strauss.
