| Advent is the season of waiting and watching. It is the time when the church waits… and watches for the light to pierce the darkness. With a grand pause we take a collective breath and look inward… “How have I loved this year?” “Who have I loved this year?” “What have I loved this year?” “What is it that I wait for?” “What is it that my soul yearns for?”Is it a job? Is it a home? Is it food for my soul?… is it food for my children? Is it health? Is it family? Is it love?Advent presses us to connect with the deepest yearnings of the soul, then proclaims Jesus is coming!Come wait with us. Come watch with us. Come yearn with us… for that other world, which is possible. Come expect grand and beautiful acts of God with New York Faith & Justice this month. |

washington post on the movement…
The Envision conference brought attention to a new cohort of social justice Evangelicals with a broadening agenda of both personal and societal issues in need of transformation. Reuters and the Washington Post both picked up the story describing the changing landscape of Faith and Politics and interviewing some of the compelling new voices in Christian social action. In particular– our new intern Matt Dunbar! A warm welcome to him as he begins his work in the movement!
