A big push in our quest for $4000!
Today we made huge progress in achieving our campaign goal! Thanks to all our wonderful donors we've reached a total of $3435, which means our campaign is 85% funded! Just a reminder, we have until this Friday to reach $4000. Once again we would like to ask if you guys could continue to help us by spreading the word about our cause! With only a few days left it is extremely important that we continue our great work! With your help CAGJ will get this book published and into the hands of the people ASAP!
Now we would like to share with you a blessing prayer from the National Farm Worker Ministry, a faith based organization that supports farm workers as they organize for justice and empowerment. This blessing prayer is featured in the 2nd edition of our book "Our Food, Our Right: Recipes for Food Justice" ! Enjoy!
Bless the hands of the people of the earth,
The hands that plant the seed,
The hands that bind the harvest,
The hands that carry the burden of life.
Soften the hands of the oppressor and
Strengthen the hands of the oppressed.
Bless the hands of the workers,
Bless the hands of those in power above them
That the measure they deal will be tempered
With justice and compassion. Amen.
