The Office for Global Concerns has agreed to sign on at the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty web site as a supporting organization. You can find the list at www.ncadp.org under national affiliates. I think it may be September before it is listed as Marie Dennis needs to fill out an application and then the NCADP board approves it.

The MOGC played a key role in writing and circulating a letter to President Obama requesting decisive support for efforts to wring out excess speculation in agricultural futures markets that threatens the food security of hundreds of millions of people. The letter was signed by 183 social justice and civil society groups including 108 international groups from 29 countries and 76 groups based in the United States. Check the MOGC website under "economic justice" to read this letter and other articles on speculation and food markets.

Last year, as part of our "Loving our neighbor in a shrinking world" election year project, Maryknoll missioners wrote homily helps based on our five election year themes: the economy, climate change; migration; sustainable peace; and HIV-AIDS. This year, Maryknoll missioners have again been invited to prepare homily helps from Easter 2009 through Easter 2010, based on the themes of faith-ecology-economy, or peace and sustainable security. Homily helps will be posted on our website, www.maryknollogc.org - use the button marked "Homily helps" in the left column to navigate to the page.

 The Forum on Faith, Economy and Ecology: Moving beyond growth to a sustainable Earth community is just a few weeks away; please register if you haven't already. To be held May 2-3 in Washington, D.C., the forum hopes to engage communities of faith more deeply in creating economies that support right relationships between humans and the rest of creation.
