Social Justice
Educating, Listening, and Acting to Eliminate Injustice and Oppression
A main priority for our faith community is to make sure that we work towards justice in our community, state, nation and world. Our Social Justice Ministry aims to educate, listen, and act to eliminate injustice and oppression. We do this through providing resources and opportunities to learn, hosting events and discussions, sharing action tips for our congregation, and partnering with others who are already doing important work.
Our Areas of Focus
Anti-Racism
Leading our effort to learn about white privilege and systemic racism, reflect on our role in current racist systems, educate our community and take action for racial justice.
Environmental Justice
Working to reduce our church’s carbon imprint. Educating and taking action on climate change issues.
Health Care
Leading conversations and action on the disparities in health care.
Reconciling and Inclusion
Supporting our current Reconciling Ministry. Leading our congregation to action on conference and general conference United Methodist reconciling issues.
Democracy
Creating awareness of how EUMC members can take individual action on issues that challenge our democracy.
