Fair Trade Sunday

Filed Under Events, News, Social Ministry by Pastor Meredith 

After a summer hiatus, Fair Trade Sundays are back starting on September 21 with coffee sales after both services. Regular (drip and whole bean) coffee is available for $6 and decaf for $7. Beginning in September, we will introduce tea for $3. Expect even more products–including chocolate–in the coming months.

Fair Trade Sundays occur every Third Sunday and is done in cooperation with Lutheran World Relief’s Fair Trade Project. The goal is to make products available to St. Paul’s members that are created through Fair Trade Principles–
• FAIR WAGES
• CHILDREN’S RIGHTS
• WOMEN’S RIGHTS
• THE RIGHT TO ORGANIZE
• ENVIRONMENTAL RIGHTS
• INDIGENOUS RIGHTS
