December 2025: Season’s Greetings

As we enter the Christmas season, we are reminded that this time of year is truly about the birth of Jesus Christ and the gift of redemption. We give thanks to God for all He has done in and through our community.

We are grateful for the strength and impact of faith leaders, church communities, nonprofit organizations, and local businesses that help build Salem as a city of peace. Shalom.

It has truly been a blessed year, and we are deeply thankful for the remarkable work we are able to do and for the community we are privileged to serve.

As the year comes to a close, we invite you to consider supporting our organization through your year-end giving. Your generosity helps us continue our work of building a Salem that reflects equity and representation for all through education, community engagement, and business development. This work is only possible through meaningful collaboration and strong partnerships.

It is our hope that you will continue to bless our organization by giving through the website listed below, helping us finish the year strong and prepare for the work ahead. Together, we look forward to building an even stronger community in the coming season.
