Racial Equity Understanding Discussion Aug 5, 6:30 pm
At this time wounds of racial discord and misunderstanding in our country are raw. How can we truly lay a foundation for a better day in America? Is there a rainbow on the horizon of a new day? We continue to care, pray, and hope. We can also keep listening and learning. Our suggested readings and video will help you on the journey of racial inequity understanding. Contact the church office if you need a link to the Zoom meeting for this discussion.
