The Bellringer: Ringing against Injustice

Friday, July 8, 2022

Dear friend,

I wanted to make sure you knew about some staffing changes and an event you won’t want to miss this Tuesday!

CARAVAN TO CUBA MAKES ALLENDALE ITS LAST SENDOFF
Pastors For Peace have been making an annual trip to Cuba since the 60s. This year they are heading there with medical aid (see below for a list of items needed). They will be at Allendale at 6PM this Tuesday for a presentation deconstructing myths many of our Cuban myths.
Learn more about the event here.

ALLENDALE ADDS NEW STAFF TO OUR TEAM

Rev. David Franks joins us as our Minister of Pastoral Support. A retired United Methodist pastor, David holds a wealth of experience to help Allendale develop deeper networks of mutual care for each other. In addition to calling on members throughout the week, he will hold intentional time he can meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays, scheduled through Beth in the office.

Dylan Dames will continue leading singing on Sunday mornings and additionally will be a Community Organizer Fellow with Faith in Florida, linking Allendale to the important work of doing justice.
