Greetings!

Thoughts on celebrating Labor Day

Of course, this coming weekend is a great time to focus on and appreciate how the Labor movement in this country has provided us so much (including the weekend!) and if you'd like to celebrate by direct action, please do so by supporting the Local Mechanics 701 strike HERE.

Additionally, there is a deeper component to "work" which is outlined by Sister Joan Chittister, a founding member of The Global Peace Initiative of Women--a partner organization of the UN--who says this 
"A spirituality of work puts us in touch with our own creativity. Making a salad for supper becomes a work of art. Planting another evergreen tree becomes our contribution to the health of the world. Organizing a good meeting with important questions for the sake of preserving the best in human values enhances humanity. Work enables us to put our personal stamp of approval, our own watermark, the autograph of our souls on the development of the world. In fact, to do less is to do nothing at all."

Where will you put your personal stamp of approval 
this Labor Day and beyond? 




Become a monthly giver! $5-10 a month is an easy way to invest in our collective future.
