What Does Love Require of Us? Practicing Love in Turbulent Times

Rev. Angie Wright is the author of Loving My Enemies & Other Outlandish Pursuits, a memoir of family, faith and power. She will guide us as we wrestle with the challenges of practicing love for our families, neighbors and adversaries in turbulent times. What does love require of us? How can we embody love in the midst of discord and division?
Rev Angie is a retired social justice activist and UCC pastor devoted to the pursuits of justice and mercy in the South. She was the founder of Beloved Community UCC in Birmingham, AL, and a founder of Alabama Arise, a statewide coalition that lobbies on poverty issues. She has an identical twin, Bonnie. She has two splendid sons: Luke, a North Carolina musician, and Frank, who lives with his precocious 8-year-old son, Kai, on a cattle farm in the southern zone of Costa Rica. Angie lives in Hillsborough, NC, with her red dog, Rio.
Rev Angie will be our Speaker during worship on March 15, 5 pm. The event will be on site at Beloved and online.
