Uniting, advocating, and being in faithful witness to Jesus’ teachings and building a Granite State that reflects God’s inclusive love.
Public Policy Advocacy
"Christ has no body but yours,
No hands, no feet on earth but yours,
Yours are the eyes with which he looks
Compassion on this world,
Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good,
Yours are the hands, with which he blesses all the world."
-St Teresa of Avila
The New Hampshire Council of Churches is committed to being the hands and feet of Jesus here in the world. It is our value, call and joy to stand alongside the marginalized in our state and to advocate for those who need support. We are so much stronger together, each of us using the hands, feet and voices God has given us to bring about love in our world. While we are currently engaged in the work for economic justice, access to healthcare, racial justice, civil rights, immigration rights and creation care, we also know that God's love is expansive, and ours must be too. We are constantly stretching our reach and finding new ways to support Granite Staters.
