Join us for Services in the Sanctuary:  Sunday, January 12, 2025, 10:30 a.m.

Speaker:  Rebecca Feldman
Topic:  "Building Strong Girls and Women United in Sierra Leone"
Musician:  Brian Bender

Host:  Kirsten Levitt
 

Rebecca is from the Boston area. She is an attorney and has worked in international human rights for close to thirty years. Her work includes refugee resettlement and asylum representation, prisoners' rights litigation, and women's rights and economic empowerment. After working in Africa for years, in 2020, she founded Strong Girls United Women with three friends from Sierra Leone in order to address the devastating situation facing women and girls in that country after the civil war ended in 2002.

The mission of SGUW is to fulfill the simple idea that all women and girls are valuable. All should live a life of their choosing, free from pain, physical threat, and fear. 

Brian Bender is a multi-instrumentalist (piano, trombone, accordion, percussion...) who has performed at Carnegie Hall and the Presidential Inauguration of Bill Clinton. He has also performed in France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Egypt and Israel. He is a graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music. Brian performs frequently throughout New England in numerous bands in a wide variety of genres: Swing, Dixieland, Klezmer, Irish, Reggae, Pop, and more. He also owns and operates Face The Music Recording Studio in Shutesbury, MA, and he teaches lessons to children and adults.
