“Racial Justice: A Mandate to Our Discipleship” Webinar Series
Series Overview
This four-session series invites participants to explore the racial justice mandate of The United Methodist Church—its origins, meaning, and ongoing significance as a mandate for dismantling racism, white supremacy, and colonial legacies in the life of the Church. Through guided teaching, reflection, and dialogue, participants will deepen their understanding of how our collective identity and responsibility as a denomination is committed to racial justice.
