Advocacy Camp 2009

Faith Communities and Social Transformation,
October 24, 2009
Covenant Lutheran Church in Houston

Advocacy Camp is a citizen leadership development program that teaches people of faith in Texas how to engage in the public policy process. Guest speakers discuss issues such as health, immigration and environment, provide up-to-date information on the topic at hand and explain why these issues are important to the faith community.

Our keynote speaker is renowned author and pastor Brian McLaren. His public speaking covers a broad range of topics including spiritual formation, inter-religious dialogue, ecology, and social justice. Rev. McLaren will be joining Advocacy Camp via satellite to discuss the importance of individuals and communities of faith in social transformation. He will also be available for an interactive question and answer session after his presentation.

Workshop topics will include immigration, health care, environment, and election-year information for faith communities.
