'A Right Relationship' (A Conversation about Justice in Las Cruces)

click on image to see full poster

In most languages, the word for “justice” is the same as the word for “righteousness.” This is true in both Hebrew and Greek languages, the languages from which our bible is translated. In Spanish, the word is “justicia.”

These words all mean "right relationship" -- right relationship with God (righteousness) and right relationship with people (justice). Jesus summarized this as “Loving God” and “Loving neighbor.”

Come join Bread for the World organizer Robin Stephenson for an evening of exploration and discussion on how the idea of “right relationship” can influence the world we live in today. 

We will also look at this year’s Offering of Letters video and discuss how helping low-income families make ends meet can be a reflection of God’s love for all.
