TLC has been given a purple candle by the Isaiah Domestic Violence Task Force which is now placed on the sanctuary altar . Lighting a purple candle during our Church service lets people in the congregation know that, as people of God we stand with the sacredness of each person’s body. The purple candle symbolizes the hope that each person who has been hurt by verbal, emotional or physical violence in an intimate relationship has a place of safety in the Body of Christ.
“For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the lord – plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope.” Jeremiah 29:11

WHAT IS THE RACIAL JUSTICE TEAM?
We, the Racial Justice Team of Transfiguration Lutheran Church, believe that God's creation enfolds one single humanity made up of multiple ethnicities, all members of an earthly realm. We believe that racism -- a mix of power, privilege, and prejudice -- is a violation of God's intention for humanity. We seek to stand together in raising our voice against racism and combating it in any form. We seek to foster acceptance and welcoming of all people at Transfiguration and in the broader community.
