Come out and join us for dinner and conversation! We’ll be in the back room unless there’s a special event going on in that room.
A Time Bank is a community of people who support each other. When you spend an hour to do something for an individual or group, you earn a “time credit.” Then, you can use that “time credit” to buy an hour of a neighbor’s time or engage in a group activity offered by a neighbor. It’s that simple. Yet it also has profound effects. You get to know your neighbors and friends and build an old-fashioned extended family of people who take care of each other. A Time Bank changes a whole community. Bring a dish to share and learn about the Care and Share Time Bank.

The 26th Friendshipment will be a special event that will celebrate the establishment of diplomatic relations with our neighbor in the Caribbean and the possibility of the USA government eventually repealing the more than 50-year-old embargo we had placed on the island in 1960 during the administration of Dwight Eisenhower.
Since the first Friendshipment (1992), the “blockade” of our neighbors has been consistently opposed by IFCO [Interreligious Foundation for Community Organization] and Pastors for Peace.
