We invite congregations and allies to join us the weekend of May 16-18 for a Social Action Sabbath as we pause and give thanks for the farmworkers who toil in orchards, fields, barns and packing houses to feed and nourish us. We invite your to remember these hardworking men, women and children who labor to nourish all of us.
The purpose of Farmworker Solidarity Weekend: Farmworker Social Action Sabbath is to raise up the MORAL and ETHICAL voices of religious congregations/communities within New York State to focus on our farmworker sisters and brothers — and to respond to their longstanding injustice with prayer, education and action. To assist your efforts, RMM has gathered a collection of readings, prayers, songs and litanies, below. Click here to download:
