Justice!
St Mark's UMC is a proud member of the Good Faith Network,
a network of 27 faith communities which works for justice
in Johnson County.
Micah 6:8 is a mandate for all who claim to follow God.
Churches are traditionally good at "walking humbly" and provide many opportunities for worship and Bible study.
Most churches do well at "loving mercy" and include many opportunities to be supportive and merciful through things like food pantries and clothing drives.
However, most churches do not do so well at "acting justly" - that is, seeking ways
to change unjust systems, or speaking to people in power about the needs
of those who are marginalized and abandoned by our culture.
The Good Faith Network gives us the opportunity to join our voices
with many other congregations so that we can be an effective voice for change
in numbers too large to ignore!
Check out their website: www.thegoodfaithnetwork.org
Grow with Small Groups
You might want to check out our Sunday School classes for adults at 10:45 am after worship, or other week-day groups including short term Bible Studies, a Prayer Chain and an Advocacy Group
