SUMMARY:Portland CROP Hunger Walk
DESCRIPTION:Every year\, EMO’s Northeast Emergency Food Program (NEFP) joins with local partners to host the Portland CROP Hunger Walk. This is a worldwide initiative of Church World Service. \nNo one in this world should be hungry. That’s why the CROP Hunger Walk is more than just a gathering of people in a place. We’re part of a movement\, taking steps and raising funds together to provide meals for those in our own community who need them — and supporting programs that create greater food security in communities all around the world. \nPlease join us in the fight against hunger! The steps we take and funds we raise will make a difference in the lives of others. \nAbout the CROP Hunger Walk: If we work together\, we can end world hunger. That’s why we’re participating in the 2026 CROP Hunger Walk to support Church World Service (CWS) and help families who are struggling with hunger. Please join us with your steps and your donations. Together we will provide more meals for the growing number of people in our community who need them and create greater food security in communities around the world. \nNortheast Emergency Food Program and the CROP Hunger Walk: Through this partnership\, 25 percent of donations to the Portland CROP walk go directly to EMO’s food pantry\, allowing us to feed more families in our community. It’s a wonderful\, family-friendly way to help us fight hunger\, reduce food insecurity\, increase economic stability and work together. Please join us for the 3-mile walk on April 19 and encourage those who can’t join us to support you with a donation! \n\nSIGN UP NOW \nWant to help spread the word about the CROP Walk?

Each Summit participant will be invited to create one square in the quilt to express their response to the question: “I / We have the right to … clean water\, clean air\, healthy food\, etc.” We will digitize each square\, bringing all of the squares together into a work of art that reflects the beautiful diversity of our community. Our goal is to take the quilt on tour to inspire support for the people’s right to a safe and healthy environment. Ultimately\, we will ask for the quilt to be displayed in the Oregon Capitol.

SUMMARY:2026 Collins Lecture with John Fugelsang
DESCRIPTION:John Fugelsang is an actor\, comedian and host of “Tell Me Everything” on SiriusXM Progress. He is also the author of New York Times bestseller\, “Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person’s Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists\, Fascists and Flock-Fleecing Frauds.” \nFugelsang uses humor and biblical scholarship to challenge far-right Christian ideologies\, such as Christian nationalism\, and argues for a return to the core teachings of Jesus–love\, mercy and service.
