One of the opportunities our Racial Equity Team has researched and recommended to Church Council is in-depth training for our church leaders on the concepts of racism, equity, and justice.We are excited to announce that FVUMC is hosting Phase I training on January 8-9, 2022!
The training is being led by the Racial Equity Institute, a nationally recognized alliance devoted to the work of creating racially equitable organizations and systems. Through this training, interested leaders in our congregation, along with members of our Racial Equity Team and pastoral staff, will gain tools that challenge patterns of power and inequity. This training is designed to equip participants with the tools and knowledge to create space for the crucial work of racial equity and to explore ways to invite our congregation to join in our efforts.
