Join us on February 3rd, 2023 for an Organizing Meeting with On Earth Peace’s gun violence organizing campaign. We want to connect with people in churches and neighborhoods who are concerned about gun violence in our country - who are already taking some action or who want to get involved. Come share your story or your hopes for involvement!  

 

This initiative aims to move our constituency into action to reduce gun violence in the United States. If you have been active, we want to hear your stories so others can learn from your experience; if you are recently fired up, we want to offer the community a place to connect. We want to build capacity and commitment and see the way forward for all of us. 

 

You can expect to: 

  • hear updates from OEP organizing interns about current action on gun violence
  • reflect on your (possible) role in the movement
  • connect with others who are concerned or involved
  • get some energy and power for the work ahead 
  • identify immediate next steps in your own action against gun violence 

 

Agenda:

You can attend either or both!

2:00-3:00pm EST

Starting at 2:00 pm EST, we extend an invitation for members and friends of the Church of the Brethren for a chat about how we might work together to do something about gun violence specifically as Brethren. How could we stimulate our beloved denomination to take a strong public stance or develop more local initiatives on gun violence? The 30-minute "chat" will be convened by Matt Guynn, OEP's director of organizing, and Mandy Park, a member of OEP's Gun Violence Organizing Campaign who is involved with Moms Demand Action. Mandy is a member of Brownsville CoB, Knoxville, MD. 

 

3:00-4:00pm EST

We extend the invitation to everyone interested in gun violence prevention to join our conversation and campaign.
