CRC Board votes to apply for GreenFaith Program

CRC's Board of Directors voted to apply for CRC to participate in the GreenFaith Certification Program, a two-year, congregation-wide greening initiative. We are very excited about this program and should know by early summer whether we have been accepted. Information about the GreenFaith program is at http://greenfaith.org/programs/certification. If you are interested in joining the Green Team, which will guide CRC's participation if we are accepted, please contact Jen Bersdale at jennifer@centralreform.org.

Raise the Wage/Cap the Rate

Every day, thousands of families in Missouri struggle to stretch their wages across mounting bills. As the financial woes for these families mount, many turn to high interest credit, like payday and car title loans, to meet their short term credit needs. The combination of low wages and predatory interest contributes to a system that can trap low-wage workers in a cycle of poverty. CRC’s Board of Directors has voted to endorse a pair of ballot initiatives intended to give working families a better chance at economic stability. We encourage all CRC members to educate themselves about these issues, and if you support them, to sign the petitions and volunteer to collect signatures to place them on the ballot. More information is online at www.centralreform.org/raise-cap.
