Labor in the Pulpits, on the Bimah, in the Minbar is a nationwide effort to celebrate the link between faith, work, and justice. Thousands of congregations focus worship services on the dignity of labor, the injustices facing workers, and how to put our faith into action by lifting up policies to build a more just world.
- Remember, it is always legal for faith communities to talk about initiatives that accord with their values.
Participating in Labor in the Pulpits creates opportunities for people of faith to be a part of critical initiative campaigns to strengthen working families.
This Labor in the Pulpits, on the Bimah, in the Minbar season, Faith communities may:
- distribute bulletin inserts & voter pledge cards
- add specific reflection on the dignity of labor, modify liturgies, speak on the connection between faith and the importance of passing policies to benefit Missouri families.
- invite speakers who will benefit from more just policies to create a Missouri that works for all of us, not just the richest 1%
