Answer the Call: Work for Justice and Liberation

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me... to proclaim liberty to the captives and release to the prisoners.” (Isaiah 61:1)

February 21-22, 2025 9AM-5PM

This Summit brings together people of faith, justice advocates, and leaders to explore how we can embody God’s promise of liberation.


πŸ’‘ What to Expect:

  • Hear from individuals and congregations directly impacted by the carceral system, and from those engaged in reentry work and abolition efforts
