Last week, ONE members and faith leaders from across the country got together for a conference call on ONE Sabbath, which along with companion programs ONE Seva and ONE Sadaqa is rallying believers of all faiths, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus and others, to learn and take action on behalf of people living in extreme poverty and dying from preventable diseases.

We’ve got full audio from the call online here and I hope you’ll take a few minutes to listen.

On the call, we talked about successful ONE Sabbath events that have already happened and how ONE members can host their own ONE Sabbath events within their faith communities. We were joined by a great group of faith leaders, Kim Steitz, Director for International Policy at the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, Rick Pelay, from the Jubilee Community Church in Miami, FL, Herley Jim Bowling, a member of the Church in Ocean Park, Santa Monica, California, and Pastor Michael Hidalgo of Denver Community Church.

This call was focused on our Christian ONE Sabbath supporters, but we’re looking forward to launching similar efforts through the Jewish ONE Sabbath, ONE Seva and ONE Sadaqa programs, soon.

If you’re interested in getting your faith community involved in ONE Sabbath, make sure to check out the call, and sign-up to receive more information:
