Conversations on Race
Led by Pastor Kathryn
Thursday Evenings in May from 7:30 - 8:30 PM
During Black History (February), a group of UMCEG members met once a week to discuss topics related to race and racism. The format, viewing a short video followed by discussions and personal sharing, turned out to be very engaging and participants agreed that they'd like to continue.
Hence, the second month-long series of discussions, CONVERSATIONS ON RACE AND RACISM, will be offered during the month of May. Anyone is welcome to join in as we learn together. The discussions will be held via zoom so please contact Pastor Kathryn to let her know you will be joining and will need the Zoom link.
