Together with Rev. Dr. Shelley Best, our friends at Redeemer’s AME Church in Plainville, and others our joint work to understand and eradicate racism is ongoing. We next gather by Zoom on Thursday, April 22 at 7 PM. to discuss the film "Cooked: Survival by Zip Code."

Salisbury School, the Church of Christ, Congregational UCC of Norfolk, and the Norfolk Historical Society have announced the placement of a Witness Stone to honor James Mars on May 1st, 2021 on the day the State of Connecticut proclaimed James Mars Day. Please plan to be part of this important day honoring one of Norfolk's most extraordinary residents. Special guests will include Jahana Hayes, Kevin Witkos, Maria Horn, Dennis Powell (Berkshire NAACP) and the Rev. Cleo Graham (current pastor of the church in Hartford that Mars helped found).

Join the Green Team in writing postcards to support environmental and climate change action! We have topics, addresses, and scripts for issues from auto emissions, to pipelines, to land conservation. We have postcards and stamps (or you can use your own). We will have a get-together on Zoom on Tuesday April 20 at 5 p.m. to write postcards. Email Shelley at harmstorrey@comcast.net to get the Zoom invitation and the postcard topics & addresses. If you need postcards and/or stamps, tell her how many (up to 10) and where to deliver them before the postcard party.

We are returning to the Lakota Reservation in South Dakota next year. We'd love for you to be part of this exciting and fun opportunity.
