The Social Ethics of Social Media
The Rev. Dr. Mark Y.A. Davies, leading
The chaos at a certain social media company over the past few months raises the question, “What is the good of social media?” With billions of persons investing so much of their time and lives into their presence on social media, how can social media be used in ways that benefit rather than harm the well-being of the human community? You may read Dr. Davies’s bio here.

Bigger Than Roe 50 Year Rally
this Sunday, Jan 22 @ 4-5 pm
|
We are ALL born free and equal in dignity and rights. The Supreme Court of the U.S. and the United States Congress have failed in their obligation to protect, respect, and uphold our human rights. The women’s wave delivered a blow to anti-freedom politicians in the 2022 midterms, and now we are taking the fight out of D.C. and into every single state in this country.
On January 22, 2023, the anniversary of Roe V Wade, as we mourn the loss of nearly 50 years of constitutional protections, we send another clear message:
The midterms were just the beginning. We are not going gently. We are taking our fight to every state and every legislator in this country. We are putting all politicians at every level of government on notice: If you come for our families, our freedoms, or our future, we are coming for your seat. Our movement is strong. Our movement is growing.
Our movement is Bigger than Roe.

Dianna’s niece realized she hadn’t heard from her on Christmas Eve so she went to check and found her unconscious. She had suffered a stroke and died a few days later. A celebration of her life was held at Emmanuel United Church of Christ in Wright City, MO on Jan 7th. A video of her service is available on Facebook here: https://m.facebook.com/events/719762166226447?view=permalink&id=720173682851962&sfnsn=mo&mibextid=uevf24
