Across the country, religious voices are rising against the sudden repeal of DACA.  The sudden end to the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Act, would leave 800,000 children, youth, and young adults who arrived in the country as children vulnerable to deportation across the United States.

Church Women United  joins with other religious voices against the sudden repeal of DACA.

The work and advocacy of Church Women United is a Labor of Love.  Over the past year, however,  our CWU NY office staff has declined to half of its usual size due to the lack of financial resources.  Now there are too few hands to do the work. Our  help is needed.  Go to the website:  www.churchwomen.org to  make a financial gift.

Stop at noon on Mondays to pray for CWU and for peace and other concerns in the world and in the community.

Visit www.thepetitionsite.com and sign petitions for causes important to CWU and you.

Please send your Celebrations Reports to Annie Purcell as well as to the National Office.  Annie’s address is:

1802 Eastwood Avenue, Greensboro NC 27401

Whenever your local unit board list changes, be sure to let Emily Sprague know.  Her information is esprague@nc.rr.com, 919-828-1269, 600 Stacy Street, Raleigh NC 27607.

Important! All units are responsible to send their year-end financial report and their budget for the coming year to the national office and to Nancy Bumgardner, NC CWU treasurer. Remember to include your EIN.

If you haven’t been to the National CWU website lately, you need to go there:  www.churchwomen.org.
