Strong Women, Strong Coffee

Welcome to Strong Women, Strong Coffee, where passionate and determined women gather once a month (2nd Saturday mornings at 9AM) to engage in meaningful conversations over a warm cup of coffee. We meet at Saint Luke Episcopal Church, 209 S Market Street, Mount Joy. In an era where our democracy faces pressing challenges, we share our hopes, fears, and tangible actions that can help us rescue, recover, and rebuild the values we hold dear. Our meetings provide a safe and casual atmosphere, encouraging open dialogue and fostering connection among women who share a common concern about the authoritarian path our nation is on. While we occasionally invite guest speakers to enrich our discussions, the heart of our group lies in our sisterhood and solidarity. Men may be invited under special circumstances, but please understand that this is a space created by and for women to express ourselves and support one another without male influence (which surely is valuable in other settings). Together, we brainstorm strategies, share insights, and empower each other as we navigate the complexities of our political landscape. Join us as we brew strong coffee and cultivate even stronger voices for democracy!

Upper Valley Voices for Democracy

In Heather Cox Richardson's 7-29-2024 letter, she recounts the moments in US history when Americans have experienced revolutionary moments. She ended with this: "When President Joe Biden announced just a week ago that he would not accept the Democratic nomination for president, he did not pass the torch to Vice President Kamala Harris. He passed it to us." She continued, "It is up to us to decide whether we want a country based on fear or on facts, on reaction or on reality, on hatred or on hope. It is up to us whether it will be fascism or democracy that, in the end, moves swiftly, and up to us whether we will choose to follow in the footsteps of those Americans who came before us in our noblest moments, and launch a brand new era in American history." The choice in November is a referendum on the two and a half century history of this country. Will we continue the too-glacial pace of making this a more “Perfect union,” or will we throw it away in favor of an autocracy that will carry out an extremist far-right agenda? Project 2025 is the comprehensive transition plan to deal a death blow to democracy. It includes policies ready to be enacted on Day One, recommendations for top positions in government, and a database of loyalists prepared to fill positions previously held by civil servants. During the first Trump administration, the former president was frustrated by patriots at all levels of government from generals to bureaucrats who would not do his bidding because it violated sacred, often constitutional, norms. These obstacles will no longer exist. Furthermore, the Supreme Court in Trump v. United States granted immunity for anything Trump does if he regains office. Let's make sure that Project 2025 never happens!
