Becoming Beloved Community

Parishioners throughout the Augusta Convocation of Episcopal Churches and guests are invited to participate in our next Becoming Beloved Community event. Before this event begins in the River Room, consider grounding and renewing your spirit in the Celtic liturgy of The Holy Eucharist offered at 5:30 PM in the church.

Our program will have four parts:

1. introduction, sharing hopes and concerns
2. view excerpts of an interview with Dr. Ibram Kendi about his book Stamped from the Beginning
3. table sharing
4. Next steps and closing prayer

At this gathering, WE WILL create a brave space by agreeing to use Respectful Communication Guidelines and Mutual Invitation to ensure all may participate and be heard. We will seek to understand one another through listening.

WE WILL NOT engage in shaming, blaming, or disrespect. We engage in this work in striving to live our Baptismal promises to persevere in resisting evil, to proclaim in word and example the Good News of God in Christ, to seek and serve Christ in all persons, and to strive for justice and peace among all people, respecting the dignity of every human being. (BCP – Baptismal Liturgy)
