Labor Day Worship Resources

Labor Day weekend is just a few weeks away. If you’re looking for Labor Day weekend worship resources check out the website of Interfaith Worker Justice (IWJ). IWJ “calls upon our religious values in order to educate, organize, and mobilize the religious community in the U.S. on issues and campaigns that will improve wages, benefits, and working conditions for workers, especially low-wage workers,” reads their mission statement. With poverty increasing and the majority party in Congress and the White House opposed to an increase in the minimum wage (but supportive of tax cuts for the richest of the rich) Labor Day weekend is a great opportunity to remind people of faith of our obligation to work towards a just society.
