Dear FCGG Members,
It has been a LONG time since we have met, so here’s an invitation to a Members Meeting, December 14th from 7 – 8 pm.
This meeting will take place over Zoom.
RSVP to Becca at education@fcgg.org
Please let us know you are coming.
In this meeting, we’ll give you a quick update on what each of our three Working Groups have been doing this past year, but most importantly we want to hear from YOU! We want YOU to also update us on what Climate Action steps your Houses of Worship and congregations have been taking, and how can we help in that process! We also want to hear YOUR IDEAS and what you have learned this past year that you can share with us at FCGG. In this meeting we will spend more time listening to you than us talking about FCGG!
We hope that all of you will join us on zoom as we are truly looking forward to connecting with you! Dec 14, 2023 at 7:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

We have reserved this date (November 4th at 1 pm) for our Sacred Connections guests for an event at ICGC called ‘Know Your Neighbor’ Tour.
The ICGC is an “open” Center, where Muslims can worship, learn and gather socially. They also welcome their neighbors, friends and colleagues of all faiths to come and learn about Islam and get to know their fellow Americans who are Muslim and their commitment to community and service.
The presentation and tour will last close to two hours. When visiting the Center, it is requested that women wear slacks or long skirts, long-sleeved shirts and bring a scarf to cover their heads with when entering the main Mosque. Men are also requested to wear slacks and sleeved shirts. A $2 per person suggested donation is requested.

The Emergency Shelter of Northern Kentucky (ESNKY) will host its annual Blessing of Winter Shelter on Sunday, October 29, from 2pm-3:30pm.
This is an opportunity to join in community supporting NKY’s only low-barrier, immediate-entry overnight shelter for adults experiencing homelessness. Last year, the emergency shelter program, including the winter shelter, served 1,004 adults in their 68-bed facility.
ESNKY is proud to be nondenominational and work with many faith communities to support our guests. The event will be held in the Daytime Navigation Center, a hub of community resources for adults experiencing homelessness in NKY. Following a short program, there will be an opportunity to tour the shelter facilities, meet staff, and interact with guests.
All are welcome!
More than 800 people have seen Race and Racism in Cincinnati: A 3-Part Docuseries and heard the people’s history of how race and racism shaped our neighborhoods, education, and culture. We heard from participants of the series about their shock at not knowing some of this history and we also heard that they want to do something about it.
That’s why we’re inviting Docuseries participants and community members to an action focused conversation. At this event we will unpack the question, “How do I dismantle systemic racism in Greater Cincinnati?” Come with new ideas or share what you’re working on in your community, then invite others to join you!
