SUMMARY:Immigration Law Training
DESCRIPTION:The Mennonite Central Committee (MCC)\, in collaboration with World Relief\, is offering an intensive five-day Immigration Law training March 30 (all day) through April 3 (all day)\, 2020. The training is being held at the MCC Welcoming Place\, Akron\, PA. \nThe training will be conducted using the curriculum of the Immigrant Legal Resource Center (ILRC). This course will help to provide the necessary training component for individuals who wish to apply for accreditation from the Department of Justice (DOJ – formerly known as BIA recognition and accreditation). DOJ recognition and accreditation allows non-attorneys working at non-profit organizations to practice immigration law. The course will touch on all areas of immigration law and practice focusing on topics most relevant to those serving and representing low-income immigrants. \nDue to the requirements of the recognition and accreditation application process\, we recommend that only individuals with U.S. citizenship\, lawful permanent residence\, or other long-term immigration status apply for this training. \nAdditional requirements for applying for Department of Justice (DOJ) recognition and accreditation will be discussed during the training week.  Learn more and register.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED -- 2020 Chrism Service
DESCRIPTION:March 2020\n\nDear Beloved Siblings in Christ\,\n\nAs part of a deep and meaningful Lenten journey\, I invite you to our Southeastern Pennsylvania Synod Chrism Service.\n\nOn Tuesday of Holy Week\, it is our tradition to gather for a service of Word and Sacrament\, for blessing of oil\, for healing prayer\, and renewal of ministry vows.\n\nThe Chrism Service is a time for ministers of Word and Sacrament\, ministers of Word and Service to reaffirm promises made as you began your ministry\, and blessings for congregational deacons and assisting ministers to honor their local ministries. It is also a time to worship our Lord and be strengthened and renewed as we prepare to lead the faithful to the Cross and Resurrection.\n\nWe will gather at Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd\, 132 E. Valley Forge Road\, King Prussia\, PA 19406; 610-265-4545; on Tuesday\, April 7\, 2020 at 10:00 am.\n\nWhether or not your congregation has the practice of anointing with oil\, please join us in this holy time together. Oil used at baptism (“chrism”)\, anointing the sick\, and signing those preparing for baptism\, as well as other blessings will be set aside for use in our congregations through the year. If you would like to take some of the oil back to your congregation\, please bring a vial or small container with you. Following the service\, we will enjoy a light lunch and conversation in the fellowship hall. Your family members\, friends\, seminarians\, and leaders of your congregations are also welcome to attend and join us as we renew our vows.\n\nOur Lord Jesus has chosen us\, blessed us\, and sent us to proclaim the Gospel in Word\, Sacrament and public ministry for the sake of the world. Let us be renewed together in worship\, and strengthened for the journey. I look forward to this Chrism Service on Tuesday\, April 7\, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. at Lutheran Church of Good Shepherd.\n
