Our journey toward a more just and loving world began on Sunday, September 14, with a powerful sermon from Rev. Dr. David Barker. He invited our community to join our friends at Habitat for Humanity of the St. Vrain Valley in their Building Beloved Community initiative. It is a call to action rooted in Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s powerful words: "Justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love.”
If you missed it, you can watch David's sermon here.
This journey is guided by the BE LOVE movement, a growing effort led by Habitat to achieve justice through courageous acts. It defines a three-step path to creating a more peaceful world:
- Educate: Learning the principles of justice and nonviolence.
- Build: Strengthening character and community through action.
- Act: Creating lasting change with the steps of Kingian Nonviolence.
We are just getting started, with more to share in the coming weeks. For now, we invite you to take the first step with us by completing Habitat's survey to let us know how you'd like to get involved. Your input will help shape our collective efforts.
