Today's #UMCGC Monitoring Report from Dawn Wiggins Hare and Rev. Dr. Giovanni Arroyo: "Welcome to the last day legislative committee work! We want to remind you that @gcorrumc and @GCSRW have been filing daily reports in the DCA. You can read a summary of our observations. Over the last two days, you have had a chance to organize and prioritize and seek to perfect petitions through holy conferencing.
