Wear your walking shoes! The march will be about 1.7 miles and there will be some additional walking from the bus stop to the march. Some seats will be available in marshal cars during the march if you need a break from walking. Contact Tyler at 715-451-9260 with any questions.

This Sunday: Israelism Film Screening

Please join the Racial Justice Team this Sunday, September 29 at 11:30 a.m. in the sanctuary for a screening of the film Israelism.  When two young American Jews raised to unconditionally love Israel witness the brutal way Israel treats Palestinians, their lives take sharp left turns. They join a movement of young American Jews redefining Judaism’s relationship with Israel, revealing a deepening generational divide over modern Jewish identity. Watch a preview of the film here. We’ll have pizza and popcorn and there will be some time at the end to reflect and have a respectful dialogue on this pressing issue.
