Dear EAD Advocates and Supporters,

 

We are excited that the week of #EAD2018 has arrived! As hundreds of us gather in the nation’s capital this weekend for our 16th annual National Gathering & Congressional Advocacy Day, we are raising our voices for justice in “A World Uprooted,” focusing on the needs of our brothers and sisters who are migrants, refugees and displaced people.

 

If you are planning to join us in person but haven’t registered, you can still register online for the full conference or for one day. While there is registration on-site, registering online will save you time at the registration table.

 

We hope that those of you who are not able to be present in-person this weekend will take the opportunity to participate remotely by reviewing our Congressional Advocacy Ask materials and joining in our Facebook live stream of selected plenary events. We encourage those not able to be present in-person at #EAD2018 to organize local gatherings with other faith-based justice advocates and participate virtually in aspects of the National Gathering. Information on all these items is in this message.

 

Whether you are in-person or remote, we hope you will lift your voice with ours as we advocate for justice for the uprooted, migrants, refugees and displaced people.

 

May God richly bless all of our efforts!

Rev. Dr. Leslie Copeland-Tune, Director of Ecumenical Advocacy Days and
the EAD Leadership Team
