Dear
Friend --
As we grapple with crisis upon
crisis in Southern California, we at CLUE are still here, to remind
you that together, we are working everyday, for a better, more
equitable world for everyone. May you find grounding in the words of
Rev.
Ashley Horan, below.
Another world is possible. We say
it, again and again, even when the proof lies somewhere beyond the
horizon, beyond our reach, beyond our imagination.
This is our faith: Another world
is possible. Not somewhere else— another world, another
lifetime—but here, and now, for us and for all.
Another world is possible. There is
no single path toward that world; no one strategy or approach that
will restore balance, heal brokenness, sow wholeness, free
creation.
There are many routes toward
liberation; toward freedom. But the abundance of options does
not absolve us of the responsibility of acting.
Another world is possible. The
call—the duty— of each moment in history Is to discern: Who are
we, and what can we bring with humility, integrity, faith?
What is the context, and how can we
address it with agility, resilience, skill? What is the vision, and
how can we realize it with accountability, relationship, joy?
Another world is possible. In
this time of despair, of fear, of collapse—this time that is both like
every other era and like no other time in history—
It is audacious to declare our
faith and to commit our work to a world that is more
free, more just, more whole.
But we are an audacious people in
good company, with many kin, and we are ready to show up and work
hard and stay humble and make friends and hold the
vision starting here, now, today, with us and
persevering— however long it takes—until that other world is not
only possible, but Another world is here.
In faith and solidarity,
Clergy and Laity United for Economic
Justice
