DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JUNE 15TH

Are you a part of a Christian congregation or do you know someone who would be interested in being trained to meet this moment as people of faith?

White Christian nationalism creates theological justification for xenophobic, homophobic, and misogynistic laws and attitudes. It is also powering the genocide in Gaza, the climate crisis, and racist ideologies like the Great Replacement Theory.

Showing Up for Racial Justice and Kairos Center for Religions, Rights, and Social Justice are partnering to help congregations respond to this moment and lead efforts for change in their communities. Through this 9-month program, congregations will gain an understanding of Christian Nationalism’s relationship to poverty and racism and how these are manifesting in their communities. Congregations will be equipped to engage in ministries to address poverty, racism, and Christian Nationalism and live out the gospel call for justice and abundant life for all people.

The deadline to apply to be a part of the upcoming cohort is June 1, 2026.

Q***r is Sacred on Native Land.

Two Spirit and Q***r Indigenous Identities have been a part of our communities since time immemorial. We give thanks to our LGBTQIA2S+ elders and all those who have paved the way.

As we work to return land to Indigenous hands, we recognize that rematriation requires dismantling and disruption of homophobia, transphobia and patriarchy.

Honor and protect our IndigiQ***r and TwoSpirit relatives!

What does buying groceries at Whole Foods have to do with surveillance and ICE? In the latest SURJ blog, Jean Moses and Lisa Hesselgesser, members of the SURJ Bay Resistance Action Pod, SURF (Showing Up to Resist Fascism), look at how Whole Foods' parent company, Amazon, provides cloud services for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) which provides them with the ability to surveil, kidnap, and deport our immigrant neighbors. https://www.surjbayarea.org/blogs/boycott-whole-foods-oppose-a-surveillance-state-and-the-kidnapping-of-our-immigrant-neighbors
