Diocesan Racial Justice and Education Team

Mission

To cultivate courageous space for individuals and congregations in the Diocese of Indianapolis to live and walk together through holy discomfort, to create an environment for racial justice, healing, and repair, and to learn, listen, and grow into God’s Beloved Community.

This training is required for ordination, and we strongly encourage all diocesan leaders, lay and ordained, to participate as well.
  • Third: to support and connect people and congregations throughout this diocese with the variety of congregational and regional efforts to dismantle racism, including trainings, book studies, discussion groups, witnesses for justice, etc.
