SUMMARY:Advocacy Workshop: Countering Extremism through Engagement
DESCRIPTION:As Episcopalians\, do you find yourself asking the following questions? \n\nAs Christians how do we take the principles we hear from the pulpit and apply them in a Christlike way to our shared public life in Ohio?\nHow do we counter the extremism operating in our state without cultivating hate for others?\nHow can the church be a place of healing and liberation for both the oppressor and the oppressed?\nHow does the Ohio statehouse work?\nHow can we begin to organize for the dignity of our neighbors and affect meaningful policy change at the state level now?\n\nJoin Trinity\, Capitol Square and other leaders across the Diocese of Southern Ohio on Saturday\, January 31 to explore each of these questions and more as we gather together to inspire\, inform and catalyze our commitment to loving our neighbors in Ohio. \nKeynote Speaker Maria Bruno will offer a compelling vision of how we fight extremism in Ohio’s state and local government by building community\, holding out hope for transformation and not spreading hate. Then\, Rachel Coyle will lead a seminar\, “How Things Work at the Ohio Statehouse?” for a non-partisan nuts and bolts look at both the political process that results in bills being passed and how to advocate effectively for issues in Ohio. And then finally\, the Rev. Nick Bates will share how people of faith are currently organizing at the state level and facilitate small group discussions for how we can leave this gathering ready to engage as Episcopalians.
