Sunday Nights at Wesley Transistor (https://transistor.fm) https://feeds.transistor.fm/sunday-nights-at-wesley Sunday Nights at Wesley is an initiative run from Wesley Uniting Church in Perth, Western Australia, on the second Sunday of every month. 

It’s an inclusive space for Christians, and people who may not be comfortable with that label, to come together and share in a tradition of justice, joy and healing.

We talk about topics relevant to folks organising for social justice and change. Nurturing the roots that give people the strength to stand for refugee rights, LGBTQIA+ rights, climate justice, Indigenous justice, Women’s rights and more.
