Congress is attempting to use an unprecedented loophole to erase public land plans in Alaska, Montana & North Dakota. That means millions of acres of habitat, recreation areas, and Tribally-important lands could lose protections. If they succeed, this sets a dangerous precedent that threatens how ALL of our public lands are managed in the future. Our voices, and the voices of local communities and Tribes, are at risk of being silenced. We can’t let that happen.

In North Dakota and eastern Montana, these lands safeguard critical drinking water sources and habitat for wild life like mule-deer and sage grouse from drilling and coal mining pollution

In Alaska, the vast Central Yukon plan protects salmon-spawning grounds, caribou, and dall-sheep habitat, recreation areas, and lands vital to Alaska Native communities.

Congress is planning to use the little used Congressional Review Ac (CRA), which was established in 1966 to overturn “rules” issued by federal agencies. The purpose is to ensure agencies stick to Congress’s orginal intent when creating regulations pursuant to specific laws. However, it has never been used to overturn decision like land management plans before…

Using the CRA to overturn these plans is unprecedented and could block agencies from ever reinstating similar protections.

Hit us up if you’ve got questions or want to get involved—because protecting our neighbors and our future is pretty hot, ngl.

“Public lands belong to all of us—and it’s our responsibility to care for them. Whether it’s picking up trash, respecting wildlife, or advocating for conservation, every action counts. How do you care for Nevada’s public lands?

In a statement released on 29 August 2025, the Lutheran World Federation calls for immediate action to end famine, stop violence and atrocities in Gaza.

On Sunday, we heard Jesus call to disrupt the status quo – in table manners. Instead of scrambling for the places of honor, Jesus reminds us: “For all who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

At God’s table, honor is not about status, wealth, or return invitations. It’s about humility, generosity, and creating space where the poor, the marginalized, and the unseen are welcomed first.

This vision isn’t just about ancient banquets—it’s about how we live, how we gather, and how we use the gifts entrusted to us today. At St. Paul’s, we are discerning how to use our back two acres of land. Will it simply be a patch of ground, or can it become a banquet table wide enough for our neighbors, a space where abundance is shared and all are welcomed?

As you step into this week, ask yourself:

• Where can I practice humility in my daily life?
• How can I make more room at my table for those who are overlooked?
• What “two acres” of my own life—time, gifts, resources—might God be inviting me to open wide?

The kingdom of God is abundance, not scarcity; love, not fear. Let’s lean into that truth this week.
