Living Out Our Calling
FEATURED SERIES
As The United Methodist Church, our denominational commitment to racial justice - this calling - is not abstract or aspirational. This series invites you not simply to learn, but to practice and embody racial justice as a lived commitment. Together, we step into the work of dismantling racism, not as an act of charity, but as an expression of faithfulness to the gospel and to one another.
“We believe that the Image of God found in the person of the Holy Trinity is Diverse, Equitable, and Inclusive.”
