A Message for the Cross of Glory Community
As people of faith, we lament with Daunte Wright's loved ones and we grieve yet another sacred Black life lost at the hands of law enforcement. Join us in lifting up prayers for our Brooklyn Center community.
Just as we lift up prayers with our mouths, we work to live out
these prayers with our hands and our feet, offering mutual aid to our
neighbors in need. To that end, Cross of Glory is joining together with
CAPI and other neighbors in our community to serve as a site of mutual
aid. Please refer to the
CAPI facebook page for updates.
Our doors are open for care. Our sanctuary is open for prayer. All are welcome to stop by as we continue to lament, organize, and work for justice on behalf of our neighbor, Daunte Wright. To quote the words from the prophet Amos, often quoted by another prophet, Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.: "Let justice run down like water, and righteousness like a mighty stream" (Amos 5:24).
Mutual Aid Distribution and Community Resource Fair:
- Saturday, June 19 from 10-2 **POSTPONED** Stay tuned for updates!
All are welcome to stop by the church
parking lot to pick up food and basic hygiene materials and connect with
neighbors and community partners.
If you're interested in lending a hand
either day, or in taking part in a broader conversation about how we
can keep working to re-imagine a better Brooklyn Center for us all,
please reach out to Pastor Ali. For questions about donations, please
call the church office at 763-533-8602.
