A Short Note from Amy on Giving Tuesday 2022

Written By Amy Butler

Dear friends,

Thank you for following the work of Invested Faith this year. We’ve made great strides, having now funded 23 faith-rooted social entrepreneurswho are building businesses that are changing unjust systems. Now, Invested Fatih is ready to fly!
2023 will see us doubling the number of Fellows and building platforms for continued networking and support for these change makers.

Today is Giving Tuesday and I know you are receiving requests from many worthy causes. If you’re thinking of giving this year and looking for a way to give that gets resources immediately into the hands of innovators doing the difficult work of healing the world, Invested Faith is exactly the right place to give.

I am grateful…for your support and encouragement, for the ways you deeply value our responsibility to heal a broken world, and for lending your imagination to what we can accomplish together.

With gratitude,

 

Rev. Dr. Amy K. Butler, Founder, Invested Faith

P.S. Here’s an easy link for giving. Giving will be even easier in 2023.

Amy Butler

Dr. Butler believes deeply that courageous communities of people who live with tenacious love can change the world.  Much of her career has been spent helping build communities of radical witness in the institutional church. Amy most recently served for five years as the seventh Senior Minister and first woman at the helm of The Riverside Church in the City of New York. She holds degrees from Baylor University, the International Baptist Theological Seminary, and Wesley Theological Seminary. Pastor Amy’s professional ministry career began as the director of a homeless shelter for women in New Orleans, Louisiana; she later became Associate Pastor of Membership and Mission at St. Charles Avenue Baptist Church in the city of New Orleans. In 2003, Butler was called to the position of Senior Minister of Calvary Baptist Church in Washington, D.C.’s Chinatown, where she was also the first woman to lead that historic congregation.  

​Though leading institutions of faith in this moment can be one of the most challenging leadership tasks around, she is optimistic about the impact faith communities have on the world.
