Thank you to everyone who Joined us for an Afternoon With Bishop Barber II on May 5th.
Renowned civil rights leader, Bishop William Barber II spoke on 5/5/24 at the Immanuel Congregational Church, UCC in Hartford.
This was an exciting opportunity for all who attended and we were so happy to see their sanctuary filled to capacity to hear Bishop Barber’s powerful message of “Challenge and Hope.”
Bishop Barber is a preacher, social activist, author and sought-after public speaker who became nationally known for his leadership with the Moral Monday movement in North Carolina. He has recently begun a new phase of his work as the founding director of the Center for Public Theology & Public Policy at Yale Divinity School.
