Churches Working Together: A Food Justice Event

We are co-sponsoring an opportunity for pastors and church leaders to come together and engage in conversation about food justice issues. We will discuss food insecurity and food deserts within Winston-Salem as well as the connection between food and faith at “Churches Working Together: A Food Justice Event.”  It takes place on Saturday, April 12 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Lower Auditorium of Wingate Hall on the campus of Wake Forest University School of Divinity. Brunch will be provided.

We hope faith-based organizations will work together, explore options, and implement a plan of action. A few of the presenters will be Rev. Charolette Leach of Morning Star Baptist Church, Marty and Ben Tennille of H.O.P.E. (Help Our People Eat), Forsyth Futures, Tamica Patterson of Rebecca’s Store, and many more.
