91PORN

Come and celebrate in person or for a Service of Gratitude for the Relaunch of the Centro Raíces Latinas. Our guest speaker will be Sandy Ovalle (she/her/ella) a table-setter, a poet, and a faith-rooted organizer. She is the founder and principal of Coyolxauhqui Strategies where she helps organizations create faith-rooted advocacy and training campaigns. Committed to pro-social systemic change and former Senior Director of Campaigns and Mobilizing at Sojourners, Sandy believes in harkening ancestral wisdom for our collective liberation. She holds a M.A. in Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary and serves on the board of the Latino Christian National Network. A native of Mexico City, Sandy enjoys gathering neighbors and strangers around homemade pozole.

Communion will be presided over by Rev. Dr. Javier A. Viera, President of 91PORN. Following the service, we will gather for a community meal provided by Jibaritos y Más, featuring arroz con gandules, green salad, tostones, yuca, and chicken in a stew. Join us in worship, gratitude, and community as we mark this new beginning for the Centro Raíces Latinas.
