A NOTE ABOUT THESE MEETINGS
These meetings are open to anyone or any group interested in promoting the common good in our shared Charlotte-Mecklenburg community.
We do not allow announcements from for-profit groups promoting their businesses or campaigning from political candidates. Beyond that, we don’t have rules for who can speak or what they can share as long as they support our commitments to respectful conversation and the dignity of all people.
Because we have a very wide array of beliefs and understandings within our membership and because we want to keep these meetings open as an open forum, we’re going to add this disclaimer to the minutes: "The views and opinions expressed here are those of the speakers/presenters and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of the MeckMIN board or our member organizations."

For a $500 sponsorship, you could have a display table in the reception room.
Email LeDayne if you are interested in sponsoring.
Faith Leader Processional
All faith leaders are invited to be a part of the processional beginning the annual community Thanksgiving worship service wearing the vestments appropriate to their tradition. This is a beautiful, visible reminder of the rich religious diversity of our community. Recognizing that not all of our member communities have clergy, we extend this invitation to anyone who serves as a leader within a faith community.
Plan to be at Trinity Presbyterian Church by by 6:20 PM -- be mindful of the omnipresent traffic on Providence Rd. We'll gather in the Fellowship Hall, and a group photo will be taken at 6:30 p.m. We'll need to be in line for the processional by 6:45 PM.
Please let us know you'll participate by filling out this quick FORM
Interfaith Choir
All singers are invited to be a part of the interfaith choir at the annual community Thanksgiving worship service. Please let us know you'll participate by filling out this quick FORM
There will be two choir rehearsals, both held in the choir loft at Trinity Presbyterian Church (3115 Providence Road, Charlotte, NC 28211). One will be on Sunday, November 19, at 5 p.m. The second will be before the service, exact time TBD.
Offering and Food Drive
An offering will be taken and will be split between MeckMIN and Crisis Assistance Ministries (CAM). Our friends there are telling us that they are seeing overwhelming need at this time in our community. As you are able, please plan to donate to the offering to support their work and ours.
Among the hundreds of families served at Crisis Assistance Ministry this year were a young mother and her two-year-old son at risk of losing their home. Having moved to Charlotte from several states away, she and her toddler are alone in the city without the support of family or friends. This mom had lost her job due to one too many days of calling off work as a result of last-minute cancelations by an unreliable childcare provider. After nearly two weeks of searching, she landed a new job and a better daycare center. But her first paycheck would come several days after her eviction court date.
Fortunately, after discussing her situation with a trained caseworker, this hardworking mother received the good news that funds were available to bring her rent current. With the specter of homelessness no longer looming, she can focus once again on building a stable life for herself and her son in their newly-adopted hometown.
We will also be sharing with Loaves and Fishes which is seeing the greatest need in their history.

NC INTERFAITH ALLIANCE AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
Mary Peacock | mary@nccouncilofchurches.org, marygpeacock@yahoo.com | 336-847-6546
Basic info:
Please fill out the SURVEY to find out more:
The NC Interfaith Alliance Against Domestic Violence is a new program collaboration of the NC Council of Churches and the NC Coalition Against Domestic Violence. Its primary purpose will be to equip leaders of all faiths in NC to respond to domestic violence within their faith community.
Although the Council is a Christian based organization, we often work in interfaith programs to address issues such as economic justice, health, environment, welfare, public education, gun violence prevention, criminal justice reform, and peace. The Coalition is the primary facilitator in the state of DV training and policy, working with shelters and advocacy centers in all 100 counties.
Did you know that 1 in 3 women in NC and 1 in 7 men in the US suffer from Domestic violence? Every 4 days a woman is killed by her abuser in our state. In a 2015 article published in the Journal of Interpersonal Violence 75% of congregants said they would first go to their clergy if they were in a domestic violence situation. 78% of clergy did not feel they were equipped for this.. Most believed their church didn’t have a problem with domestic violence.
There was great information in the meeting about how common domestic violence is and sympathy and resources for clergy who are often the go-to resource for what to do but rarely feel ready to manage the situation.
So what can we do about this?
We are repeating this survey in order to inform the changes in the Coalition curriculum that will be appropriate for faith communities and leaders and reflective of the diversity of our state. This is why I am here today and am asking that you complete the online survey and send the link to your faith communities.

GREENFAITH: REQUIEM FOR THE CHILDREN AND PLANET
Rev. Amy Brooks Paradise | 704-458-4438
In the Christian tradition there is the celebration of All Souls at the beginning of November. This commemoration of those who have gone before takes various forms.
This year, our local GreenFaith group is remembering all who have been lost due to climate change and climate disasters. We also recognize that there is still much to lose, including our children's future.
In recognition of these losses both past and future, we are hosting a Requiem for the Children and the Planet. We invite you to join us on Tryon Street as we engage in a walking vigil to remember. We will stop in front of Bank of America, Chase and Wells Fargo to lift up the connection between investments in fossil fuels and climate disaster. Many of our investments are funding the climate disaster.
The event will be November 1 at 4 pm and will last for 1 hour. We will gather at the Disco on Trade and Tryon and remember those we have lost. This event is part of our Earth Witness Wednesday. We hope you will join us.
