Racial Justice Sunday and Bishop Guerry Sunday

5/16/2018

 
Dear Friends of The Episcopal Church in South Carolina,
 
As you are aware, racial justice and healing is a primary focus for us as Episcopalians. It is Gospel work for the healing of the nations. Such ministry commands our constant attention along with the necessary action to rid our country and world of the sin of racism.
 
I ask that you continue to find ways to address racism in all its forms as it occurs in the Church and in our culture. The present-day manifestation of racism is no less insidious than at other times in our national life. I encourage you to seriously consider ways in which you can take advantage of the upcoming Racial Justice Sunday on June 17, and also on June 24, in our own Diocese, Bishop Guerry Sunday. 
 
These are great opportunities to bring to awareness and teach one another about how the ministry of Christ leads us to be at the forefront of addressing modern expressions of injustice and inequality. Links to resources for these days are provided below.
 
“Glory to God whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine” Ephesians 3:20.
 
Blessings and peace in Jesus, the Risen One,
 
+Skip
