SUMMARY:Bridging Cities\, Building Collaboration (Trauma Informed Care Training Conference)
DESCRIPTION:Imagine if we understood the challenges our youth and young adults face today. Imagine if people felt safe enough in our churches to share about the pain of their past abuse and trauma. Imagine if the church was known and trusted as a healthy place for healing. \nThis conference is designed for pastors\, ministry leaders\, and survivors with sessions such as “Elephants in the Church- Introducing subjects we don’t normally talk about in church\,” “Understanding Trauma\,” “Girl Empowerment\,” “Empowering Young Men\,” and many others. By exposing and addressing issues like abuse\, pornography\, sex addiction\, exploitation\, and other forms of complex trauma\, we can begin to transform our communities. If you or your church has a heart for reaching our youth and young adults and helping to change our culture\, we invite you to connect with other churches\, businesses\, healthcare professionals\, and law enforcement agencies along the west coast to collaborate with one another. \nLearn more and register at https://www.mentorsupportcollaborative.com/.

SUMMARY:Hearing the Cries 2019
DESCRIPTION:Hearing the Cries for Justice is a regional summit to equip people of faith and goodwill to support their neighbors impacted by the legal system. This one-and-a-half day event will bring together “experts” in the field—including those with lived experience\, alongside professionals—to share opportunities for people of faith to help change hearts\, minds and society itself. Over a series of summits held in different corners of the state—starting in Eugene—we will connect people locally to build up the movement for justice. \nOn Friday evening\, a screening of the documentary film “Thirteenth” by Ava duVernay will be held at First United Methodist Church\, followed by discussion. This event is open to the public and included in your registration for the summit. \nOn Saturday\, our focus will be equipping faith communities for the work of serving people impacted by the justice system. Two tracks of emphasis will offer training in prison reentry mentorship and public policy advocacy. There will also be ample time for networking among faith communities already serving this population. \nTogether\, we will shape a vision where Oregon’s faith communities are called to engage with the justice system and those impacted by it. Join us! \nRegister now \nLearn more about EMO’s Criminal Justice Ministries. \nInterested in being a cosponsor? Download a sponsorship form.

SUMMARY:Fixing Your City: Creating Thriving Neighborhoods and Adapting to a Changing world
DESCRIPTION:Amid the headlines announcing disheartening stories about global warming\, there is good news—while the challenges are real\, so are the solutions. \nAward-winning Portland urban architect George Crandall suggests practical responses in his groundbreaking book\, Fixing Your City: Creating Thriving Neighborhoods and Adapting to a Changing World. \nIn an interactive presentation\, Crandall will introduce a radical transformation strategy that will tackle the city’s toughest challenges\, resulting in healthy places to live\, work and play. He will give a compelling commentary that: \n\nIdentifies a planning process that offers solutions to critical urban issues\, using examples from the city of Portland.\nAddresses climate change and congestion with an integrated land use/transportation strategy that reduces transportation carbon emissions by 50 percent by shortening and eliminating auto trips.\nProposes a new class of professionals\, urban architects\, who would design cities that work\, both for residents and for our endangered earth.\n\nFixing Your City is finding a warm reception in Portland. Mayor Ted Wheeler has said in regard to Crandall’s proposals: “I believe that this (transformation) strategy will provide our city with innovative solutions for dealing with population growth\, congestion\, and global warming.” \nBill McKibben\, author of The End of Nature\, and founder of 350.org\, says this about Fixing Your City: “Cities are going to have to transform themselves if we’re to make the progress we need in the climate fight—transform themselves to deal with the trouble now coming\, and transform themselves to cause less damage. George Crandall reminds us that along the way these kinds of repairs can also produce cities that are more fun to inhabit.” \nFor over 40 years\, George Crandall has been involved in the life of U.S. cities\, both as an architect and urban designer\, and as a passionate and dedicated citizen activist. In 1998\, he founded the Portland\, Ore.\, consulting firm Crandall Arambula\, the only firm in the nation that has the singular focus of revitalizing cities. Many of the firm’s projects have received awards for their innovative solutions to seemingly intractable problems. \nCrandall earned a Bachelor of Architecture and a Bachelor of Science in civil engineering\, both from the University of Arizona. An FAIA\, he has been active in numerous professional and civic organizations\, and lives in Portland. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Crandall’s book “Fixing Your City” will be available for sale at the event as a fundraiser for EMO. This night only\, 100 percent of the purchase price will go to support Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon’s Creation Justice. \nPlease RSVP https://www.facebook.com/events/397651200997342/.

SUMMARY:Clean Energy Jobs Lobby Day
DESCRIPTION:Turn your concern and passion about climate change into action\, and join us in Salem for the Clean Energy Jobs Lobby Day to push for meaningful climate legislation. \nAs people of faith\, we are called to live out a prophetic vision that prioritizes protecting the most vulnerable communities in our society and the abundant Creation in which we have the privilege to live. Our state’s approach to addressing climate change currently falls short of this vision. Let’s show up in force to encourage our elected leaders to support for legislation that repairs our compact with each other and our natural home. \nThis free event will start with training to make sure you feel ready to talk with your legislator. Next is lunch\, then join VIP speakers to rally on the Capitol steps for climate action. In the afternoon\, you will go with a trained lobby day leader to your pre-scheduled meetings to ask your legislator to support climate legislation in 2019. \nThis is a day when we have the opportunity to make an incredibly powerful statement to our legislators to pass the strongest bill on climate — and it’s a ton of fun! \nRSVP at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1gwl_DgVjJv_Ed9neB4bopC2wmgUrW-GGchBrpvyze3E/edit?usp=drive_web
