Mobility Matters – Oasis Building Wheelchairs in Nicaragua

We are back in our usual accessible 2nd floor room at Koffler House, 569 Spadina Ave. this week, Sunday November 19th, as usual at 10:30am.

Our speaker will be Michelle Morgan from the Oasis Humanitarian Relief.

Michelle Morgan from Kansas City Oasis and executive director of Oasis Humanitarian Relief will be speaking with us about Mobility Matters Humanitarian Outreach, the Oasis Network charity that takes small teams of people to the Caribbean Coast of Nicaragua to assemble and distribute free wheelchairs to those with the greatest need.  http://www.mobilitymatters.life/

Michelle Morgan is a former evangelical Christian leader and it was during her years in ministry she discovered her passion for international humanitarian work. Prior to leaving the church in April 2015, Michelle was in the process of relocating to Nicaragua as a full-time missionary. However, after 16 years of devout faith and service, Michelle Morgan came to realize there wasn’t adequate support for her long-held religious beliefs. Despite this, Michelle was determined to continue her international humanitarian work and out of that determination, Oasis Humanitarian Relief and Mobility Matters were born.

Today Michelle and her husband, James Morgan, both members of The Clergy Project (an organization “For current and former religious professionals without supernatural beliefs”), regularly attend Kansas City Oasis where they organize Community Groups and Michelle serves as occasional emcee. Michelle also serves on the Oasis Network Board of Directors and is the executive director of Oasis Humanitarian Relief.

And on the Oasis stage, Kathryn Merriam.

Kathryn’s music weaves between storytelling and soundscapes, exploring the intersections between folk song tradition and mystical music.
