Repairers of the Breach

We will gather in the parlor after coffee hour on Sunday. There will be sandwiches and salad provided for lunch. 

Our country is at a hinge moment that calls for people of faith to stand up against all sinful systems of oppression and violence.  Many members of St. Peter’s are deeply engaged in this work. St. Peter’s Repairers of the Breach Workshops will feature lay ministers who will share what they are doing to confront the political  powers that diminish, violate, and threaten the lives of our neighbors.

This two-part workshop will feature parishioner Bob Hornsby, the co-founder of Jobomax Global, an impact-focused venture that addresses the housing deficit in West Africa. The company has provided over $6 million in loans where traditional mortgage markets do not exist, creating a new asset class for impact investors and dramatically accelerating economic development. Bob’s expertise is to build and scale social enterprises that deliver strong financial returns while creating lasting economic opportunity in underserved communities.

Clergy will provide Biblical and theological context, giving participants the opportunity to discuss how the work being done is discipleship in practice.
