It is time for the fall leaves, or maybe explore the Ruby Mountians. It is almost winter, so a fun night stargazing in Great Basin?

Did you know that Nevada has more hot springs than any other state. How many do you think we have? We have over 300 and there might be one close by!

From hiking at Red Rock Canyon to kayaking on Lake Tahoe, Nevada’s public lands are your outdoor playground. What’s YOUR favorite adventure spot? Share a pic with us!

Invest in Nevada’s future: affordable housing, clean energy, and fair wages. Or pay the price of bad policy—skyrocketing rents, higher bills, and corporate handouts.

We can build a Nevada where homes are affordable, energy is clean, and wages are fair. The choices we make today shape the tomorrow we share.

Choose a future with affordable housing, clean energy, and fair wages—or accept skyrocketing rents, rising bills, and corporate giveaways. The choice is ours. The time is now.

Did you know Nevada’s public lands protect our watersheds, wildlife, AND recreation opportunities? Protecting public lands means protecting life.

Hiking, biking, camping, or kayaking—Nevada’s public lands are your backyard playground. What’s your go-to outdoor activity?

My favorite are the Wild Horses that graze along the south shore of Washoe Lake.

Across Nevada, our cities are pushing anti-camping ordinances backed by business associations and developers, which target unhoused neighbors in the name of “cleaning up” communities.

These laws don’t solve homelessness — they criminalize it.

They claim we will first direct them to social services, then vote to cut these same social programs in the name of fraud and waste.
They exist because systems of power still choose profit over people, and silence over dignity.

We believe in a different way.
Housing, not handcuffs.
Dignity, not displacement.

Community, not criminalization.

We’re organizing to end this cycle of cruelty.

How might your congregation engage in advocacy on behalf of our neighbors in need on “God’s Work, Our Hands” Sunday? Ask us how!

On Sunday, Sept. 7, congregations will join together for “God’s work. Our hands.” Sunday.

This annual day of service is an opportunity to celebrate who we are as the ELCA — one church, freed in Christ to serve and love our neighbor.

To help you plan for “God’s work. Our hands.” Sunday, we invite you to visit ELCA.org/DayofService for resources including:

Don’t forget to share your participation with us. Send your stories and photos to paullarson@leanforjustice.org, so that together we can celebrate what God accomplishes through you.
