Welcome to the G 6 Billion

Welcome to the G 6 Billion



Join us as we journey and witness for the 6 (almost 7) billion people who are not represented by the group of 20 leaders yet whose lives and livelihoods are affected by choices not of their making.

Please peruse our site, download a flier, and join us on Sunday, September 20, at 2 PM, at Smithfield United Church of Christ, 620 Smithfield Street, to prepare for the Journey to the David L. Lawrence Convention Center to Witness for the 6 (almost 7) Billion people who are not represented by the Group of 20 leaders yet whose lives and livelihoods are affected by choices not of their making.
