Reparations Conversations
Sundays, June 4 and 25, 9:30 - 10:15 a.m.
We’ll talk about the communities most harmed by our history of church members enslaving in the congregation and our painful response to the work of abolition in previous centuries, as well as the living legacy of slavery in the forms of Jim Crow segregation, the war on drugs, redlining, and mass incarceration. We’ll update the congregation on the Reparations Fund and on efforts to engage in repair with the Indigenous communities most harmed by us. How is God calling us to engage in this powerful and life-changing work?
