FCUCC Forum Reminder

This Sunday, June 5 at 9:00 the topic will be "Shopping with Jesus: Spending to reflect our values!" Presenters Diane Rhoades and John Parris are excited to have a conversation with you about how our choices in regard to clothing, food, vacations, investments might be better tailored to reflect our values.
 
Does this retailer treat their employees as they would be treated? Is the food grown in ways that support and protect God's creation? John and Diane will share information about companies and practices, provide sources and give examples of to inspire change to a more sustainable, just and healthy life for all Life. 
 
Diane, earthworm rancher, has presented about composting to grow your own vitamins and minerals at our Adult Forums.  She is an advocate for shopping locally, and sourcing sustainable, ethically produced food. John comes from a family with a strong sense of social justice and has long been a proponent of 'putting your money where your mouth is.'  He has been very much influenced by his sister, a passionate opponent of human trafficking and slavery.  John has been involved with several successful campaigns to encourage changes in the policies and procedures of corporations.
