Dismantling Racism Training
April 24 from 9 am - 12:30 pm
on Zoom
The EDOLA Commission for Racial Healing invites you to a brave space of learning and growth in order to faithfully engage in the work of healing and wholeness to which God is calling us. We will host a two-part virtual Dismantling Training once a month from November to April. Bishop Thompson requires all clergy in the Diocese of Louisiana to attend this training at least once every three years. Based on the Dismantling Racism training offered through the Absalom Jones Center for Racial Healing in Atlanta, Georgia, this training will “seek to increase racial healing and reconciliation.”
The next training will be on Saturday, April 24 from 9:00 am—12:30 pm. The second part of the training will take place three months later at a required follow-up virtual conversation. There is no fee required for this training. Please sign up by Wednesday, April 21. Space limited to 18 participants. Priority is given to clergy if registration fills up.
