301 Faith Partners Announcements

Support Investment in Clean Energy

The Joint Ecological Team (JET) of the 301 Faith Partners has discussed the need for timely advocacy in support of federal legislation to address climate change.

We are at a moment of critical need to take action that can help to reduce these devastating impacts.

One way to act is through support of the proposed American Jobs Plan. The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) has prepared a letter titled "Tell the U.S. Senate to Invest in a Clean Energy Future".

Please go to their Action Center at https://www.ucsusa.org/ to sign onto this letter to Colorado U.S. Senators Michael Bennett and John Hickenlooper.

Thank you for taking time to act on climate change!

You're Invited to the Annual Fall Cleanup Day

Our 301 Faith Partners Property Ministry has tentatively scheduled the annual Fall Cleanup Day for Saturday, November 6, from 9 AM to 1 PM (Date may change if there are other conflicting events)

Please plan to bring your favorite rake, leaf-blower/leaf-vacuum, pruning shears, and/or other tools to clean up outside.

If you would prefer to work inside or if the weather is too bad to be outside, please plan to bring cleaning supplies and hand vacuums for interior room cleaning. If you would be able to help with some informal childcare, that would be great, too.

And.., You're Invited to the Annual Light-bulb Day

Yes, we know you have been looking forward to this highly anticipated day!.

All kidding aside we need three or four pairs of workers for this project scheduled for on September 25th at 10 a.m. to identify and replace failing light fixtures and bulbs
