Join Metropolitan Congregations United for an unforgettable evening of inspiration, community, and action at our annual Gala! This year, we gather at the Historic Stone House of St. Charles to celebrate resilience, honor community leaders, and raise critical funds for both MCU’s organizing efforts and tornado relief across the St. Louis region.
✨ Special Keynote Speaker: Jessica Mayo, Co-Director of the Migrant and Immigrant Community Action (MICA) Project
Jessica will speak on immigration justice, the decriminalization of immigrants, and how we can be motivated to act. Her leadership and advocacy exemplify what it means to build people power for lasting change.
🎤 We’ll also be honoring other community heroes who have stepped up in powerful ways to serve, lead, and love their neighbors.
