Sunday Service: "The Broken Picket Fence: Spiritual and Moral Dimensions of America’s Housing Crisis"

"The Broken Picket Fence: Spiritual and Moral Dimensions of America’s Housing Crisis"

Rev. Dr. Victoria Weinstein, Worship Leader

With Allen Lipson, ECCO

Allen and Rev. Vicki will be in dialogue about why faith communities have a moral imperative to work on behalf of fair housing, and why housing is a human right. How did it get this bad? How are we all connected to this crisis? 

Allen Lipson is an organizer for ECCO, the multifaith organization of 59 congregations on the North Shore and a rabbinical student studying for dual ordination at Hebrew College and the Yashrut Institute. He has taught widely on Jewish economic and political thought, and his academic writing has appeared in Jewish Currents, CrossCurrents, and The Review of Rabbinic Judaism.

We will be together at church and on Facebook Live.
