Join Us and Learn What to Expect in the First 100 Days 

Dear Friends, 

Friends, NETWORK has worked tirelessly for nearly 53 years to challenge lawmakers and administrations to create a future where all people can thrive and where our democracy is strong and inclusive. That mission, created by our foundresses, is more important than ever as we prepare to meet the challenges of a second Trump Administration. Are you ready to get to work?

We are! Join me and the NETWORK team on Wednesday, January 15, 2025 at 7:00 PM Eastern/4:00 PM Pacific for The First 100 Days: Strategy & Action. During this webinar, our team will share an overview of what to expect from Washington in 2025 and what we can do to resist harmful policies and programs together. 

The stakes could not be higher for our democracy and the communities we are called by faith to support--our immigrant siblings; those struggling to escape the indignity of poverty and exclusion whether they are Black, Latino, or white; and our fragile earth. Together, we will continue to build a bold, Catholic movement of justice-seekers equipped to resist policies that dehumanize, demean, and damage.

Please join us on Wednesday, January 15, 2025 at 7:00 PM Eastern/4:00 PM Pacific to learn more about what to expect in 2025.

 Wednesday, January 15, 2025: Announcement for Our Potential Move - and we need your comments now! Dear Sisters and Brothers of Emmaus: On Monday Linda, Marcie and David visited with Lindsey Kerr, the Pastor of Christ Church Methodist in Santa Rosa in order to assess whether moving to Christ Church for our liturgies would be advantageous for all of us at Emmaus. Many of us have worked with Lindsey and consider her to be an excellent leader who is courageous and energetic. We received a warm welcome from Lindsey who showed us around Christ Church and opened the room in which we may meet. It’s not in the church – but an unused classroom that’s part of the larger set of buildings in the complex.  The room has space enough for us, lots of windows and some storage. They are buying new tables for the room. The room used to be a classroom so there’s plenty of room for our celebrations. Because it was a classroom, there’s also potential for hanging posters and making it our own. ...

 Saturday, February 1, 2025: Announcement about Bill Boorman (Sir Will) Victoria just called and explained that Bill Boorman is in his transitional phase. He's no longer eating or drinking. He's still mentally sharp but is having great difficulty communicating. Let's lift up Bill as he begins his passage  Bill is one of the kindest, most talented, and generous people of this age or any other. He loved life,  companionship, friends, art, and good food. Bill used every day to live a full life. He was no visitor to this world but rather a one-person celebration of humanity in all its wonder.  As I think that he's passing from this world, to whatever comes next, I think this poem by Mary Oliver expresses so much of Sir William.  when death comes  I want to step through the door full of curiosity, wondering:  what is it going to be like, that cottage of darkness? And therefore I look upon everything  as a brotherhood and a sisterhood,  and I look ...

Thursday, May 15, 2025: *Quote from Pope Leo X1V*:  Because this Church, as long as I breathe, will be a home for the homeless, and a rest for the weary. " Brothers, sisters… I speak to you, especially to those who no longer believe, no longer hope, no longer pray, because they think God has left. To those who are fed up with scandals, with misused power, with the silence of a Church that sometimes seems more like a palace than a home. I, too, was angry with God. I, too, saw good people die, children suffer, grandparents cry without medicine. And yes… there were days when I prayed and only felt an echo. But then I discovered something: God doesn't shout. God whispers. And sometimes He whispers from the mud, from pain, from a grandmother who feeds you without having anything. I don't come to offer you perfect faith. I come to tell you that faith is a walk with stones, puddles, and unexpected hugs. I'm not asking you to believe in everything. I'm asking you not to cl...
