​​“...To Do Justice...”

What are we supposed to do in times like these? Times when the ugliness of injustice, fear and hate make their presence so obvious that it is impossible to ignore anymore. What are we supposed to do as people of faith?

We knew that our Sacred Conversations to end Racism were important. However, few of us could know where we would be right now - in the midst of social upheaval. In the middle of a time when the bright lights of justice are pulling away the false facades from our society and laying bare the hard truths that have always been there but have not had the attention they deserve. 

We are fortunate to have these “Sacred Conversations towards Ending Racism.” Next, we will be taking what we learn and translating it from conversation and education to action and championing change. We want to be on a Sacred Journey to END Racism.

The education of ourselves, of our community and beyond, should never end. But that is NOT enough. People need to hear clearly from Communities of Faith. This is a time to stand up, take stands and take action in order to change the status quo. Action and transformation. That is where we must head. The time is now for our Community of Faith to take a more prominent role in Social Justice.

Join us for our next Sacred Conversation on
 March 21, 2021 at 11:00 a.m. via Zoom.
