Read MoreABCUSA Anti-Racism Task Force article for July 2021. We celebrate our time together at the Biennial Mission Summit. We prayed together, brainstormed ideas, and shared our stories.

We are grateful for your interest, curiosity, and willingness to explore with us in the work of anti-racism, especially in the context of our faith.

As the ABCUSA, we dared to open ourselves to better understand who we have been, who we are, and who we desire to become.
