Seeking Justice in

South Africa and Minnesota

(Part of ISAIAH’s Faith in Democracy Campaign)

Friday, February 25, 2005

In the 1960’s the churches of the United States brought about the Civil Rights Bill. In the 1990’s the churches of South Africa broke the system of apartheid. We have much to share with each other about uniting people of faith at the grassroots in the struggle for freedom and justice. 

Please Join Us As We Celebrate the Creation of a Partnership between Faith Communities in Minnesota and South Africa to Explore and Promote Faith in Democracy…
