Strengthen the Movement in 2016!

Dear Friends –

Thank you for your faithfulness in working for justice in 2015. The past year was an eventful one for advocates. Even as Congress was mired in partisanship and gridlock, thanks to your dedication, a prophetic voice for justice rang out strong throughout the year.

2015-NYE-message.jpgYou made a critical difference – helping to shape the public dialogue and secure important action on issues including the Iran Nuclear Agreement, our nation’s response to the crisis in Syria, the fight for Net Neutrality, and criminal justice reform. You contacted your elected officials, wrote letters to the editor, marched and held vigils in your home states and in the nation’s capital. You inspired each other and all of us in Justice and Witness Ministries to continue working for a more just, compassionate, peaceful world that honors all of God’s creation.

There are great possibilities and challenges ahead for justice advocacy in 2016. As we begin a new year, will you help us strengthen the movement for justice?

Invite your friends to join you in working for justice by signing up for the Justice and Peace Action Network.

There is no question – Our voices are strongest when we lift them together. We are honored to work alongside you.

In Solidarity,

Your Partners in Justice and Witness Ministries
