Last weekend the Texas Impact team had a chance to hang out with a hundred Texans of faith representing congregations from across North Texas, and y’all the vibes were real. People were excited to hear from faith leaders talking about what they are doing to engage people this election season. They heard from non-profits and voting officials giving tips, tools and resources to help engage their community.
This week, we are bringing you the Faith Leader Panel from the North Texas Faith Votes event. Joining Scott on stage was Robyn Carafoil with Temple Shalom, a Past President of the Temple’s Sisterhood, and a current member of the Board of Trustees. Rev. Danielle Ayers, Pastor of Justice at Friendship West Baptist Church, a 12,000 member church in Dallas. Danielle is a devoted author, preacher, and teacher, and a Texas Impact Board Member. Finally, Rev. Cathy Sweeney, Associate Pastor of Adult Discipleship at Arapaho United Methodist Church. Cathy, a former real estate developer, now dedicates her life to non profit work supporting people experiencing homelessness and poverty and promoting racial reconciliation.
Watch the panel and presentations from Dallas County Elections, ACLU and Ride2VoteAware on Texas Impact’s Youtube channel.
