AMOS in Mid-Iowa
Abstract: People of faith organizing around issues of justice and politics.
We received an invitation to a luncheon meeting of AMOS (A Mid-Iowa Organizing Strategy) hosted by Bishop Philip Hougen of Southeastern Iowa Synod on Thursday, July 19 at 11:30 a.m.
Titled "Faith, Justice, and Politics: An invitation to public life for ELCA clergy and laity of the Southeastern Iowa Synod,"the event hopes to motivate people of faith to get involved in "public life" beyond the work place.
AMOS is a non-partisan, interfaith community organization comprised of 28 member congregations from across central Iowa. For the rest of 2007, AMOS will host political conversations in congregations, synagogues, religious organizations, local labor unions and volunteer organizations across central Iowa. These conversations will help shape the AMOS Issues Agenda for the January, 2008 Iowa Presidential Caucuses.
The luncheon will be held at Bethesda Lutheran Church, Ames, Iowa. If you're going to attend, please RSVP to Bethesda.
