[RestorativeJustice] Today's presentation and a Minnesota Congregation

[Carolyn Madden]

Today we had a wonderful presentation by Kathy, Tim and Mary Ann .  During
the questions,
we raised the issue of restorative justice at our congregation...Here is
the link to the
Congregation that is engaged in restorative justice in Minnesota and the
second link is the
article from 2019 when they started circles in collaboration with the city
attorney and Dispute Resolution
Center in St. Paul, Minnesota.

Could this happen at our congregation?

“People say, what is the sense of our small effort? They cannot see that we
must lay one brick at a time, take one step at a time. A pebble cast into a
pond causes ripples that spread in all directions. Each one of our
thoughts, words and deeds is like that. No one has a right to sit down and
feel hopeless. There is too much work to do.”  *Dorothy Day*
