Church stands with workers

On Tuesday, Episcopalians at General Convention were invited to join with Disney hotel workers as they demonstrated in front of Disneyland, protesting Disney's decision to effectively eliminate their health care (while enjoying healthy profits this past year)

Here you will see the demonstrators with a cheerful fellow (dancing to La Bamba), about a dozen Episcopal bishops, and some of the convention attendees who elected to join in the march. Local organizers did a good job of providing an opportunity for members of the church to witness to their convictions regarding economic justice for the working poor.
