2015 Legislative Faith Summits
As people of faith, we strive to create a state God envisions for us – a place where all people can thrive and live with dignity. This legislative session, members of ISAIAH congregations have been visiting their legislators, testifying in committee hearings and urging our state and community leaders to make children, families, and communities the center of their decisions.
We are also conducting a series of ISAIAH Faith Summits, in which congregations throughout Minnesota are inviting their local legislators to meet with them for a dialogue about our shared values of dignity, inclusion, equity and redemption. We are asking them how they will use the legislative session to work to make our families more secure and our communities whole.
As people of faith, we believe that our elected leaders can build a more just and equitable Minnesota with innovative thinking and courageous action.
