This Sunday we are blessed to welcome Dinora Reyna-Gutierrez, the Executive Director of the San Diego Organizing Project, SDOP, to worship and to lead our Forum. Over the decades First has had deep ties to SDOP and their work bringing peace, justice, healing and joy to our region.  Please plan to stay after worship to learn more. 

 

Dinora is the Executive Director of the San Diego Organizing Project, a network of 24 community organizing congregations in San Diego County. Dinora believes that unlocking the power of people can and will be the liberation of all people. She joined SDOP in 2014 as an organizer working with congregations across San Diego county.

 

Dinora was a founding member in the launch of the San Diego Rapid Response Network in 2017 to protect undocumented immigrants from raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and U.S. Border Protection. Dinora is the daughter of immigrants from Salvadoran-Mexican ancestors who was born in the Inland Empire, CA, but was raised on the San Ysidro/Mexico border. Her parents' migration story shaped Dinora and, as a first-generation Latinx in the US, is called to organize with people most impacted by injustice systems to create a new generation of leaders and vision for San Diego and a country where we all belong.

 

Please let the office know if you'd like a Zoom option for the forum.
