October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month

As the called people of God we cling to the fact part of our mission is to reach out to those in need, those who are vulnerable, those who hurt and in the midst of we find Christ present.  As your pastor, I am always amazed out how faithful this community of faith is to carrying out this aspect of our life together and I know many of you carry this out in your daily lives in a variety of ways.

This month, like last year, we will once again strive to bring awareness to domestic violence and also support the victims of it and the agencies who do God’s work to bring hope, healing, and safety.  In Iowa City that is the Domestic Violence Intervention Program.  I am attaching three images below of items found in the Great Hall. One indicates how we can help.  One gives general statistics about domestic violence we can educate ourselves with and one shows the display in the Great Hall.

Thanks faithful people for all you do!
