Black Lives Matter
As a church community we declare that "Black Lives Matter". We reject racism in all its forms. We work towards being the church in the world by promoting justice, standing with the oppressed, and loving our neighbor. While we have much work to do on ourselves in terms of our own biases, and in dismantling the structures of our society that uphold white supremacy, we know we are not alone in this work and God is equipping us and empowering us even now to continually do better.
To understand more about why it's important to proclaim that black lives matter we invite you to read this article published by our denomination: https://www.ucc.org/justice_racism_black_lives_matter.
