NFWM board member Rev. Dr. Sharon Stanley-Rea, Director, Refugee & Immigration Ministries, Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), has created the resource, “Who’s Behind the Platter?” – Farmworker Stories, Prayers, and Actions for Thanksgiving.”

We are pleased to share this resource and encourage you to use it this Thanksgiving season. As a founding denomination of NFWM, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) has stood fast in solidarity with farm worker justice these 45 plus years.  Thank you to Rev. Dr. Stanley-Rea and the Disciples for continuing that tradition.
