Hi All,
Many of you remember our friend and BUF
member, Exquisite Erika, who helped initiate our journey toward a Beloved
Community by founding our BUF Black Lives Matter Ministry Action Team. She
moved to Portland a few years ago and now is moving to Vermont!
Transitions are difficult, especially for
people of color, who experience direct and indirect racism in everyday life.
Exquisite is going to have a lot of transitional expenses such as moving her
car, winter tires, snow boots, warm clothes, possibly furnishings, etc. If you
would like to contribute, I’m taking up a collection. You can send checks to me
and I’ll send them along to Exquisite before the end of January.
I hope you will be generous in your
giving and show Erika the appreciation for all that she did at and for our BUF
community!
