About 200 United Methodist Women members put feet on their prayers at “Interrupting Injdifference: Jesus, Justice and Joy.” We focused training on climate justice, economic injustice, mass incarceration, and maternal and child health.

The National Seminar program included skill building workshops, plenary sessions on issue areas, worship, Bible study, and more.
These interactive workshops offered concrete tools and skills for taking National Seminar learning home and putting it into action locally.
Interactive tools and engagement provided interesting observations and experiences beyond the classroom setting. We experienced community empowerment through dialogue, tours and hands-on experience related to issues explored at National Seminar.
