  • Annual Report 2020
    2020 Annual Report common cathedral Looking back at the past year, one word that comes to mind is “resiliency.” 2020 brought unforeseen challenges and heartbreaks, but it ultimately made us a stronger community and organization. By God’s grace, this year has given us a new appreciation for digging deep and finding resiliency within. In early March of 2020, as we were learning about COVID-19 and the significant restrictions it would bring to the city and our community, we made the brave decision that we would not close. We would keep programs open and continue to be a radically welcoming place, where all could seek refuge. This was particularly important because many programs across the city were either reduced or closed completely. Thus, our constant presence became a lifeline for folks on the street. It did mean that we needed to rethink our programs to ensure social distancing and to acquire enough personal protection equipment. And we did! Throughout 2020 we did not miss a single day! Sundays continued on the Common with lunch for 150 people each week and worship for all. Our staff took to the streets on Mondays and Tuesdays to find and care for people wherever they happened to be. On Wednesdays we opened common art, offering a place to create beautiful works of art. On Thursdays and Fridays we offered BostonWarm, our day center, where people were welcomed inside to a warm space with food, access to bathrooms, and good company. What we were also reminded of during 2020 is that our supporters, donors, and partners are the best.

  • 2012 Directory African American Presbyterian Congregations
    2011 – 2012 Directory African American Presbyterian Congregations Louisville, KY ABOUT THE AFRICAN AMERIAN CONGREGATIONAL SUPPORT OFFICE The African American Congregational Support Office assists the Presbyterian Church (USA) in addressing the needs of African American Presbyterian Congregations. The office provides leadership at all levels of the denomination in order to strengthen the nurture and witness of African American Congregations. The main focus of the office is growth, health and vitality for these congregations and their ministries. This ministry works in partnership with presbyteries and congregations to help experience the unconditional love of God through Jesus Christ that empowers African American Presbyteries to be prophetic witnesses to the power of love to transform people, history, cultures and institutions. The African American Presbyterian legacy of prophetic leadership for justice and a culturally plural society has transformed the church and the world. The Black Presbyterian Church provides a forum for African American to share one another’s joys, concerns, achievements, sorrows and blessings. The Rev. John Gloucester began organizing the first African American congregation in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1807. The founding leaders named the congregation First African Presbyterian Church. John Gloucester commenced his missionary efforts by preaching in private houses June 1807 with twenty-two persons – nine men and thirteen women were organized in the church. Our office encourages congregations to become empowered

Legislative documents consist of House and Senate bills, resolutions, petitions, messages and reports, ranging in length from a few lines to one hundred pages or more. The index should prove extremely valuable to anyone doing legal or historical research in the late 19th century. The only other access to legislative documents from 1883 through 1899 is an index for each year which appears at the front of each bound volume of the documents. These indexes are antiguated and difficult to use because of language and indexing phraseology. The predecessor to this index is Francis Blouin Jr. 's Index and Guide to Massachusetts State Legislative Documents, 1802-1882 , which was published in 1972.

    common cathedral 2019 Annual Report Dear friends of common cathedral, 2019 was an eventful year. 2020 is turning out to be even more so. Even though the present health crisis is capturing our attention right now, I would like to look back at the previous year with you for a moment. In 2019 we celebrated five years with our Executive Director Amanda Grant-Rose. In those five years, we have grown in size, reach, and health beyond what was imaginable. Under Amanda’s leadership, common cathedral has established itself as a crucial nexus of care in Boston. No one quite does what we do, in the way that we do it. Time and time again, the question is raised from inside and outside: Are we a church or a non-profit? The answer is… yes! We are what we need to be in order to fulfill our unique mission: to bridge the gap between housed and unhoused, and to care for the spiritual and physical wellbeing of all in this community. We occupy a unique place that allows us to feed bellies, heads, and hearts with a love that transcends all boundaries, including the religious ones. That is why so many folks on the street consider us their spiritual home, their family -- their place to go to in moments of crisis and need, their community for celebrating milestones and achieving goals. 2019 was a financially strong year for us, in large part due to the wise leadership of our staff and board. This allows us to weather the current storm and be one of the service organizations standing firmly on the front lines.

Gilbert, and Latham & Watkins, LLP were on brief, for appellants. Ashly Scheufele, with whom Barry S. Pollack and Pollack Solomon Duffy LLP were on brief, for appellee. April 10, 2020 Hon. David H. Souter, Associate Justice (Ret.) of the Supreme Court of the United States, sitting by designation. SOUTER, Associate Justice. Plaintiffs Newton Covenant Church and its individual officers appeal from a judgment dismissing their breach-of-contract action against Defendant Great American Insurance Company. We affirm. I Newton Presbyterian Church (NPC) is a member church of a national Presbyterian denomination known as the Presbyterian Church (USA) (PCUSA). On January 15, 2017, a majority of NPC's members voted to withdraw from PCUSA and to affiliate with a non- Presbyterian organization: the Evangelical Covenant Church. The withdrawing members called themselves the "Newton Covenant Church" (NCC). On March 17, 2017, NPC and the Presbytery of Boston1 brought suit in Suffolk Superior Court against NCC and those individuals chosen to act as its officers, alleging trespass and conversion. According to the complaint, the NCC and its officers had succeeded in unlawfully exerting control over NPC real property, as well as NPC bank accounts, following a dispute over PCUSA's "progressive stances" on same-sex marriage and the ordination of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender ministers.
