Exploring the Sin of Racism 101
A coalition of churches in Coles County is hosting a Zoom event for three evenings of dialogue and presentations surrounding the sin of racism, October 5, 6, & 8 from 6:30 - 8:30 pm. We will explore questions of how to confront racism within ourselves, our church communities, and the wider society. We will look at the ways in which racism has distorted our spirits, and keeps us from racial harmony. The hope is this will be the doorway for taking additional steps as faith communities in our county, adding our faith-based voices to efforts to end racism. This is free and open to all, but we do ask you to register via this Google link. Once registered, we will send a Zoom Link and password. Please note that while we encourage people to attend all three evenings, we understand if you can only make one or two.
In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
-- Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
