"seek and serve Christ in all persons, loving our neighbor as ourselves" 
from our Baptismal Covenant

Dear Friends,

In the midst of our current times when we are living amidst the pandemic of COVID-19, and also a pandemic of fear and mistrust of our fellow women and men, it is a good time for us to reflect upon all the ways that we can live out our Baptismal Covenant to "seek and serve Christ in all persons."  Certainly, there is much work to do, and one area we can work on is on becoming anti-racist. 

Our Deanery will be offering a wonderful Dialogue Series on Race and Faith over the course of the next several months.  I highly encourage you to consider joining us for this wonderful opportunity.  

The Wissahickon Deanery of the Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania is offering Sacred Ground: A Film-Based Dialogue Series on Race & Faith in 10 sessions on Mondays from 7 p.m. to 8:30 from March 1 to June 21. The seminar, which will be held bi-weekly on Zoom is free and requires pre-registration.

 
Sacred Ground is a film- and readings-based dialogue series on race, grounded in faith.  Small groups are invited to walk through chapters of America’s history of race and racism, while weaving in threads of family story, economic class, and political and regional identity. This series is open to all, and especially designed to help white people talk with other white people.  


Participation requires a commitment to reading articles and viewing videos between sessions. All materials will be accessible via online links.  Registration deadline is Feb. 20.  Learn more and register here.  For more information contact the Rev. Barbara Ballenger, bballenger@stmatinec.org, the Rev. Carol Duncan at [email protected] or the Rev David Morris at [email protected].


One of the wonderful aspects of this series is that we are doing this work among folks from a group of Episcopal Churches, so that we can interact with our Episcopal siblings, and learn from each other.
