Period of reflection and shared memories of David Charles Edwards
Monday 9 March 2020
Period of reflection and sharing of memories of our friend and member David Charles Edwards who sadly died suddenly and unexpectedly this week. David was an enthusiastic advocate for open dialogue and exploration of matters relating to faith, life and belief and has challenged and influenced many of us. He was passionate about the threat of climate change and eager to build bridges between people of all faiths and none. He was a retired Anglican priest, who has commented lately that he felt his progressive views would have prevented ordination now, this I'm sure will be part of our discussion. The planned topic has been postponed and will be scheduled at a later date.

- United Reformed Church, Hillmorton Rd Rugby, Prayer room

Renewal and Rebellion: Faith, Economy and Climate
Saturday 7 March 2020
Our environment is in crisis, inequality is growing, and yet our economic system seems fixated on endless growth, while politics is paralysed and coarsened by division.
How do we need to change our political and economic assumptions in order to meet these challenges? How can we can model new ways of living ourselves, and as churches? How does our hope in God’s future empower us to live a hopeful, abundant life on a finite planet?
JPIT’s 2020 national conference Renewal and Rebellion: faith, economy and climate invites you to join in looking at the big challenges we all face – rethinking economic structures and taking radical steps towards climate justice, and how we can all act to change them – in faith, for people and for planet.
Through panel discussions, workshops, poetry, art and conversation, we hope to inspire and resource people to speak, pray and act boldly for justice and peace over the next decade.
