This Sunday we start our exploration of the history of race and racism in the UMC. This series connects inextricably with the summer hospitality series and will be based on the book Our Hearts Were Strangely Lukewarm. Let us prayerfully venture into this challenging journey together where we can hold each other up, mourn together, and collectively cultivate courage to know better and do better. Our scripture reading will be from Luke 4:18-19, and the Rejoice! Ringers will perform special music.
