Thank you and welcome to the TAPESTRY enewsletter! If you’re receiving this, you expressed interest in TAPESTRY and its work, and learning more about the work we do in the Synod.  

To recap: TAPESTRY is not another program. Rather, it is a group of people within the Virginia Synod who assist in weaving awareness and concern for issues of diversity, justice, and inclusion into the existing life, ministry, and programs of the synod and its congregations.  

What does this look like? This past year, we have integrated this awareness and concern by iby providing workshops at Power in the Spirit, presenting and facilitating discussion with our young leaders at Synod Youth Assembly, and providing a webinar Lenten series as an educational and faith formation resource for congregations.

More than all of this, however, we want you to understand that TAPESTRY involves YOU. To understand this better, please take a look at the following video produced by TAPESTRY Team member Harry Griffth
