On April 20th, we won commitments from public officials to improve our county: to streamline our special education system, to improve flooding infrastructure, and to increase the supply of affordable housing.

There's still follow up work to do, but on June 16th-- it's time to celebrate.

Join us for our annual Celebration: fellowship, awards, issue updates, the welcoming in of new member congregations, and investing in this important work.

The Celebration is a potluck, so feel free to bring something to share in fellowship with others.

One more day!! Don't forget to make those final reminder calls tonight-- tomorrow, we show up for our community.

Logistics to note:

*Parking attendants and security will assist with traffic into the Bible-Based parking lot. Carpooling will help to minimize traffic and maximize the spaces on the lot.

*Overflow parking will be available at Ben Hill Middle School, which is a half mile west of Bible-Based. The address is 5200 Ehrlich Rd. Parking attendants will direct you there as we require overflow. There will be shuttles bringing people from Ben Hill and back to Ben Hill ending at 9:30p.

*We will have blank paper tickets available to fill out at the Action, but you are encouraged to bring completed tickets to save time waiting in line.

*There is an elevator that can be used to bring people upstairs to the balcony-- ask an usher where to go if you would like to use the elevator instead of the stairs.

*Baby rooms will be available for parents who may need to step away to quiet or nurse their children.

On Tuesday, hundreds of justice seekers showed up for our 2026 Rally to prepare for the April 20th Nehemiah Action. We welcomed Greater Mt Carmel AME Church into HOPE membership, heard exciting reports from our research committees, and prepared to bring over 1,600 people to the Nehemiah Action.

At the Nehemiah Action, 1,600 community members will seek leadership from County, City, and School District officials to take concrete steps towards improving our housing and education systems and strengthening flooding resiliency. Don't miss it-- your presence makes a difference! Details below:
