What's Happening at St. Paul's?
Presentation: North Carolinians Against Gun Violence

Join us at St. Paul’s this Easter season as we explore how we are called to live into Christ’s resurrection in our world today. St. Paul’s Racial Justice Planning Group (RJPG) is excited to bring Sara Smith, from North Carolinians Against Gun Violence who will speak about the state of gun violence in North Carolina and how individuals, families, and communities can prevent it. While firearm violence has risen in North Carolina, there are evidence-based programs and policies that have been proven to work. Come learn about what you can do to prevent gun violence in Wake County and across the state.
This week’s forum will take place this Sunday May 22 from 10:20-11:00 a.m. in the sanctuary. You may join us in person at the church or online by registering here
