SUMMARY:Sidewalk Solidarity at DMIEC
DESCRIPTION:As a community\, we continue to learn how we can be more aware of the racial injustice in the world. Several DMIEC committees work towards these efforts\, while individuals read and discuss books and seek out other ways to enhance understanding of racial injustice issues. \nBeginning on Good Friday 2021\, we have held a weekly Sidewalk Solidarity event every Friday afternoon as weather permitted. We hope this weekly commitment will demonstrate our desire to stand as allies and show our solidarity with the Black families who have lost loved ones. An optional debriefing follows at 4:30 p.m. each Friday. \nMeet in the west DMIEC parking lot to distribute posters honoring Black lives\, then proceed to the sidewalk in front of the DMIEC building. We will open with a prayer and say the names of those who have died\, then stand in silence. Please bring a mask and maintain social distancing. Lawn chairs welcome. Cancelled if raining\, snowing\, sleeting\, etc.

SUMMARY:First Sunday Collection - Trees Forever
DESCRIPTION:Our First Sunday collection recipient for March will be Trees Forever.  For decades\, Trees Forever has helped thousands of community volunteers\, civic leaders\, government officials\, and landowners to plant and care for trees\, shrubs\, native grasses\, and plants.
