Racial Reconciliation Resources

Racial Reconciliation Resources at St. Luke’s:

• Micah Forum
  Once a month, we gather with our brothers and sisters from The Greater Second Baptist Church to share potluck meal, tell stories and explore the history, effects and consequences of systemic oppression and racism in our country. Together we look for ways to support each other and initiatives that promote understanding and reconciliation in the greater community. Micah Forum is entering its fourth year of ministry now. Read more about it here.
• Becoming the Beloved Community Study Group
  Join us as we begin a journey seeking racial healing, reconciliation and justice using Bishop Michael Curry’s Spirituality and Racial Justice course. Members of Woodland Presbyterian Church have been invited to join us. Meetings will be online using Google Meet, beginning
  6pm Tuesday, July 21 for introductions and orientation
  6pm Tuesday July 28 for first session
  Continuing on the 3rd Tuesday of each month
