Towards A Just Faith: Social and Racial Justice Strategies and Resources to Support Young People

In this presentation I will share best practices as well as resources for including social justice topics in children and youth formation. Our young people hunger for a just faith. How can we use scripture, saints, history, and the present moment to help children of all ages live out their baptismal covenant to seek and serve Christ in all persons and respect the dignity of every human being?

FACILITATOR: The Reverend Margie Baker is the Associate Rector at St. John’s West Hartford and a former public high school teacher. She has written articles for Building Faith and is the author of God, Gospel, and Gender: A Queer Bible Study for Teens. When she’s not at church, Margie enjoys reading, running, and spending time with her wife, children, and dog.
