Today’s mid-week message comes from Rabbi Ricky Kamil, congregational organizer with our community partner Beacon Interfaith Housing Collaborative. Ricky is working with UUCM to organize our participation, along with many other congregations in the west metro, in the March 20 Lobby and Rally Day at the state capitol to support Bring It Home, Minnesota.

There are two events at the capitol on March 20: 1) visiting with legislators in the morning, 9 a.m.–1 p.m., and 2) a rally in the capitol rotunda 1:30–2:30 p.m. Register for one or both here. For folks who want to participate in both, we’ll have a bus that leaves the UUCM parking lot at 8:15 a.m. and returns after the rally, about 3:15 p.m. Lunch will be provided at the capitol. Watch the Friday Update email and the Happenings page for more details.
