Social Justice Ministries of the Church Council of Greater Seattle educates, advocates, and organizes with member congregations and develops partnerships with other faith communities and community organizations to help create conditions for social, economic and racial justice in Martin Luther King, Jr. County, the State, the nation, and the world. We bring a distinct moral and faith voice to issues of our time, drawing on the Gospel values of justice, peace, reconciliation and love.
Our work focuses on five main overlapping areas:
Homelessness and Housing
Peace, Justice, and Human Rights
Confronting Poverty / Worker Justice
Racial Justice / Immigrant Justice
Care of Creation / Environmental Justice
We are currently gearing up for the 2010 legislative session. Find basic information about the session and our legislative priorities here.

We sow the seeds of social change by working in partnership with congregations and individuals alike to speak and stand up for social justice and for systematic change. We can arrange for educational discussions of social justice issues. Invite us to worship, a temple talk, coffee hour, Bible Study, forum or a discussion.
