This website has been created by a number of progressive organizations related to the Presbyterian Church (USA), with two main purposes:

1.  We want to share our concerns and views with commissioners and others attending the Assembly, and with anyone else who is watching from afar.  While some of our groups focus on one area of concern and others are more general in their focus, we are all committed to the wholeness of our world, which we understand to involve justice and peace and the well-being of all people; and we are committed to the wholeness and health of our Church and its witness and service in the world.

2.  We want to get to know you better and serve your concerns and needs in any way we can.  So we will invite you to share your views with us and with one another with any email responses or questions.  We'll invite your responses with links here and there, and we'll try to post those that seem to contribute to our conversations.  Just send a note now, and tell us how we can be helpful!

 

 


This website is created and maintained by The Witherspoon Society, with and for the following participating organizations: More Light Presbyterians, Presbyterian Peace Fellowship, That All May Freely Serve, the Covenant Network of Presbyterians, and Voices of Sophia.  Each item posted will include the name of the organization or person responsible for it. In case of questions, please contact the contributor, or the Site Manager, Doug King.
