SUMMARY:Creating Rituals for our Virtual Synod Worship
DESCRIPTION:This session\, led by Rev. Tracy Howe\, Worship Director for General Synod\, and Rev. Nancy Rosas\, pastor at Pilgrim St. Lukes in Buffalo\, NY and part of the Synod Worship Planning Team\, we will continue to prepare our hearts and minds and bodies and communities for General Synod Worship. We will look at how ritual is woven into GS worship and what to expect. Participants will gain insight and understanding into the theological foundations and artistry that went into the rituals included in the worship services we’ve woven in and how we hope people will participate from home as well as ideas as to how to incorporate these things into continuing virtual worship and hybrid worship. Suggested rituals for getting rooted\, resilience and renewal and resurrection will be shared!

SUMMARY:Focus on the Philippines: Stop Red Tagging
DESCRIPTION:The alarming human rights situation in the Philippines is drawing international concern. Following the June 2020 Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) report\, people’s organizations and civil society demanded an independent international investigation of the Philippine human rights situation amid a targeting of human right defenders through the use of red tagging\, a prevailing culture of impunity\, and the inadequacy of the domestic justice system. \nINVESTIGATE PH is that independent international investigation and is conducted by people’s organizations and civil society from all over the world. It aims to urge relevant UN bodies to make use of international mechanisms to hold perpetrators of human rights violations in the Philippines accountable and to deliver justice to victims. Its first report was released in March 2021\, the second report will be released on July 6\, 2021\, and the third report will be presented in September 2021 to the UN Human Rights Council when the High Commissioner will update on the implementation of the technical cooperation on human rights with the Philippine government. \nDuring this webinar\, the National Council of Churches in the Philippines will report on the current human rights situation in the Philippines. Two INVESTIGATE PH high-level commissioners\, Rev. Michael Blair\, General Secretary of the United Church of Canada\, and Rev. Dr. Susan Henry Crowe\, General Secretary of the United Methodist Church in the United States\, and one sub-commissioner\, Derek Duncan\, East Asia and Pacific Executive of Global Ministries of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and the United Church of Christ will talk about INVESTIGATE PH and its first two reports.
