Not out of piety or obligation,

not hastily or with moralizing fakeness,

September Service Theme
A House Divided Against Itself Cannot Stand (Abraham Lincoln)
"A house divided against itself cannot stand." Abraham Lincoln shared those words in his “House Divided” speech at the Illinois Republican State Convention, Springfield, Illinois June 16, 1858. Those words remain as relevant today as ever. This month, we will explore the promises and paradoxes embedded within American Democracy, exploring the principles upon which this country was founded, the beliefs that shaped its earliest leaders, and the civic responsibilities that accompany such freedom. We will examine what it means that Democracy is not just about having structures in place, but about practicing respect, engagement, and caring for each other as we work toward justice.
