Justice: Repairing the Breach in Society and Institutions
We participate in the repair and restoration of communities and institutions that struggle to flourish because of White dominant systems our churches and leaders helped to bless and build.
Baptismal Promise: Will you strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human being?
Core Questions:
