Justice and Mercy – First Church Birmingham

JUSTICE & MERCY

Love One Another

And what does the Lord require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God?

Justice and Mercy is an integral part of the life of First Church. Our Justice and Mercy Team helps to educate our congregation about different issues in our community as well as facilitate opportunities which move us toward finding solutions by working alongside our partner organizations. We believe we are called to both acts of justice and advocacy as well as works of mercy and that both are grounded in relationships with people on the margins.

As we seek to help make change in and around our community, we take a collaborative approach. Each of our community partners has both a staff and lay liaison to elevate the work of our partner ministries and to share that information more broadly with our community.

We invite you to click through and learn more about our partners and ongoing opportunities to serve. If you would like to know more about a specific partner organization, we encourage you to reach out to the lay liaison.
