** A Sacred Gathering for Justice, Healing, and Action
------------------------------------------------------------

Beloved Community,


At a time when the fight for justice can feel heavy, we invite you to join us at the 2025 Hall-Proctor Institute for Child Advocacy Ministry ([link removed]) , where we will embrace the power of joy, play, and laughter as acts of resistance, renewal, and radical love.


Under the theme "Building Beloved Community: A Place for Play & Laughter," this year's gathering will be a sacred space where prophetic preaching, deep theological reflection, and collective healing meet the joy and resilience of community.


We are honored to welcome a distinguished lineup of speakers and leaders, including:
