“Yes, In God's Backyard” Informational Forum
“Yes in God’s Backyard“ (YIGBY Housing) is an innovative affordable housing solution.” Faith communities hold acres of land and much of it is already zoned for housing. It can most likely accommodate residential with no property tax….As cities grapple with where and how to build more affordable housing, identifying land that could support new development has become a top priority. One option that offers a potential solution: expanding the ability of religious institutions to build housing on their land. Churches, as well as other faith-based organizations, often own underutilized land and/or structures which could be used to expand the supply of affordable housing. Doing so would provide significant untapped benefits for the organization, from supporting the organization’s charitable mission to providing revenue that can stabilize the organization’s finances. Turner Center for Housing Innovation UC Berkeley
Yet faith-based organizations face significant challenges in leveraging their property for housing…” Learn about these and more. Panel participants will include Kate Daniels, Monterey County Supervisor, Geoffrey Morgan, President and CEO of Chispa Housing, and Anastasia Wyatt, Housing Manager to the City of Monterey.

A Case for Love - Movie - January 23 only
“Our society is more divided than ever. Many have moved into tribal corners, seeing the world from an ‘us versus them’ point of view. The teachings and writings of Bishop Michael Curry, most well-known for his passionate sermon about ‘The Power of Love’ at the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, inspire A CASE FOR LOVE. This feature-length documentary examines the question of whether or not love, specifically - unselfish-love, is the solution to the extreme societal and political divide facing the world.’ i

“Peacemaker, author and Nobel Prize Nominee, Father John Dear, will be with us to talk about and sign copies of his new book, his life’s work: The Gospel of Peace: A Commentary on Matthew, Mark, and Luke from the Perspective of Nonviolence. It is the first ever commentary on the Synoptic Gospels from the perspective of active nonviolence in the tradition of Gandhi and Dr. King. In this original work, Fr. John walks us through the three synoptic Gospels pointing out Jesus’ practice and teachings on nonviolence, peace, and universal love and invites us to follow him. Join us at 7 PM on January 11 in San Carlos Cathedral Hall for an inspirational call to action! [Fr. John Dear’s The Gospel of Peace is an invitation to go beyond a conceptual consideration of peace to the living of peace, especially as a condition and an attribute of discipleship to Jesus. Cardinal Peter Turkson, Vatican City]”
