At the 218th meeting of General Assembly (June 2008), Presbyterians adopted a recommendation supporting national health care reform, calling for advocacy and education that pursues “the goal of obtaining legislation that enacts single-payer, universal national health insurance as the program that best responds to the moral imperative of the gospel.”
As part of that work toward advocacy and education, Sixth Church is a proud sponsor of Healthcare: Human Right and Moral Imperative, a regional conference organized by the Western PA Coalition for Single Payer Healthcare. The conference will be held on Sunday, June 14th, from 1 PM till 5 PM at the Pittsburgh Theological Seminary in East Liberty/Highland Park.
The conference is free; a light lunch will be served at 1:00, with the program beginning at 2:00. This is one of ten regional conferences around the country being supported by the Presbyterian Church USA.
