#WoburnUnites

Join us at the United Methodist Church (523 Main Street, Woburn) on Tuesday, October 16th for a Cultural Connections Dinner where local caterers and restaurants will provide a variety of ethnic foods! This #WoburnUnites event will focus on building ties between Woburn's longtime residents and immigrants new to the community by using food and conversation as a basis for people to learn about the diverse range of cultures represented in Woburn. 

An event for families new to Woburn within the past year or so. Connect with local organizations and services, learn more about the community resources available to you and your kids. 

The Woburn United Methodist Church will be hosting "Stand Together: Justice for & with Our Immigrant Neighbors" on Saturday, January 28 from 10am-3pm. The event will focus on learning about immigrant rights, how to be a sanctuary congregation/community, and how to stand together for justice and compassion. Speaking at the event will be Toni Machowsky, Program Director at MIRA (Massachusetts Immigrants and Refugees Advocacy Coalition) and Reverand Robin Hynicka of the Arch Street UMC in Philadephia. 

The Woburn Public Library will be hosting a podcast discussion group on the TEDTalk, "Just A Little Nicer." The event will take place on Wednesday, January 25 at 7pm. It is a free event and all are welcome! This event is also part of the #WoburnUnites programming.

#WoburnUnites is a homegrown effort dedicated to making Woburn a welcoming place for ALL by creating programming that fosters community and understanding.
