Turning a faith community’s resolve into reality

RESERVE MY SPOT HERE

“Since 2017, the Episcopal Church has been engaged in a churchwide, lifelong journey toward racial healing, justice and reconciliation,” the Rev. Canon Stephanie Spellers writes in her foreword to Reparations: A Plan for Churches.

In more recent years, calls for reparations—or meaningful repair—have become part of these discussions, but what does “reparations” actually mean, and how do individuals and institutions begin the process of repair?

Join Reparations author, the Rev. Peter Jarrett-Schell, and the Rev. Canon Spellers for a discussion of how a commitment to reparations is being lived out in congregations across the country.

Your Prayers and Presence are Requested to attend the ordination of the

Sacred Order of Deacons.

The Tuesdayers' Next Book: 

"Love: The Foundation of Christian Thought and Wisdom"

Boldly calling for a "new Reformation," Rodney Weems seeks to address the ugly divisions and refusals to listen that characterize our culture today. It is a hopeful work that invites Christians to embrace not just the theology of the Bible but the Christology as well. Noting that hard-edged theology often ends up closing circles and hearts, the author points towards a holy Word whose gentle, daily Christology asks us to open our hearts, warts and all, to God, ourselves, and others. The Tuesdayers invite you to join our discussion, which will start on May 16. The Tuesdayers invite you to join our discussion. We meet weekly over Zoom HERE on Tuesdays, 7:00-8:30 pm. For more information contact Jonathan Clark at im4canoes@yahoo.com.
