House Concerts with Justice Focus


We've been partnering with folks to create an atmosphere of inspiration and action in their homes. Hosts have invited their friends and neighbors to come together around good music and a focus of justice - peace, hunger, the ONE campaign (poverty, clean water, AIDS/HIV), the environment, women and domestic violence, honoring MLK and celebrating civil rights - these have all been topics for conversation and action at house concerts. Guests have come with food donations for local food shelves. Some have signed up to be part of the ONE campaign. Others have decided to volunteer at a local safe house for women and children. These evenings have been full of energy, an honest look at our world and readiness to respond. Hopefully, the flow of compassion will continue.
