SOCIAL JUSTICE
Westhope Presbyterian Church welcomes people of all faiths or no faith, people of every color, gender identity, sexual orientation or status.
We invite you to join us in standing up to the unjust billionaire agenda of greed, racism, violence, and division. We stand in solidarity with workers, immigrants, LGBTQIA+, families, the earth, and all people for dignity, safety, fair labor and civil rights. We stand for love and compassion as the heart of social justice.
