Seek Justice

Dialogue Institute

We meet regularly with our friends from the Dialogue Institute, which aims to “promote mutual understanding, respect, and cooperation among people of diverse faiths and cultures.” Our gatherings include women’s brunches and Ramadan fast-breaking dinners.

Interfaith Panels

One of the ways we seek justice for people of all backgrounds is through interfaith panel discussions, where leaders from all faiths come together to better understand one another and work toward a more peaceful world. Our most recent panels were:

• People of Faith in the US Today
• Women in World Religions

Sermon Series

We seek justice through sermon series like, “Finding Our Place: Locating Change in KC, the Bible, and Our Own Hearts.” This series helped us learn how injustice has been part of our local history, and how vitally important it is to recognize the ways in which it is still being played out. Watch Pastor Lora’s intro to the series and access the rest of the videos at the links below.

• Shawnee Methodist Mission and When Change is Forced
• Quindaro and When Change is Intersectional
