Faith in Action

for Sunday, 11/24/2024

As people of faith, we know that an integral dimension of our spirituality is the call to act, an act that is grounded in our response to grace and in the knowledge that Christian faith inhabits the intersection of the kingdom of God that is here and the kingdom of God that is yet to come.

We are encouraging individuals and congregations to download our Faith in Action Toolkit and thank our Rhode Island Congressional Delegation for their steady defense of religious freedom.
