The UCC Worship and Witness Artists Group, a growing network of ministers, artists, and activists seeking to document, declare and demonstrate the work of the Liberating God in our times, presents an opportunity for encounter via webinar.
Corazón Norte was born in the Kino Border Initiative Soup Kitchen on the US/Mexico border. It is here where these songs are knit between mountains of laughter, tortillas, and tears. The raw material is a thread of words that leaves one heart and becomes tied to another. In the process, all categories disintegrate and one soul is mirrored in another to discover that there are no migrants here. Or rather that we are all migrants with a Heart Headed North. https://www.corazonnorte.com
Natalia Serna, aka La Muna, is a Colombian-American songwriter and sociologist who has given much of her to walking with migrants, literally, on the trains through Mexico known as "La Bestia," through the mountains of Guatemala, and along the US/Mexico Border in the Sonoran Desert. Now she seeks to build community and plant gardens in Hermosillo, Mexico. She will present some of her work and music as well as reflections on the movement of people and what we need to live and thrive.
This Webinar is made possible by FaithINFO, a team of the United Church of Christ National Setting (Faith Innovation, Formation and Education) and The Cornerstone Fund.
