Have you ever been told to keep quiet, but you just can't do it? That was Peter and the disciples experience. Sometimes love cannot keep quiet. Sometimes love disrupts! Join us this Sunday.

We Did Justice!
On Monday April 8th, 77 of us gathered as part of a group of over 1900, to cry out on behalf of all of Palm Beach County's residents and do justice at our Nehemiah Action. We held our public officials accountable and won agreements from our county commissioners to insure the construction of a second resource
center in Palm Beach County and put money toward building housing for those who are experiencing homelessness. In addition, the police chiefs of three municipalities agreed to consider beginning a program of tracking all traffic and pedestrian stops. First Congregational Church is a faith community that does more than just talking about justice - we practice it!
