Through our Baptismal Covenant we have promised that "with God’s help, we will persevere in resisting evil, will seek and serve Christ in all persons, strive for justice, and respect the dignity of every human being." As the sin of racism bleeds through our lives, we believe that we should fundamentally commit ourselves and the church to stand against racism of every kind.
