Racial Justice

The work of the Racial Justice Committee is guided by the racial justice covenant adopted by our church in 2022. In Fall, 2024, church members were invited to join a reconstituted Racial Justice Team, as well as task groups dealing with Crisis Response and Decentering White Supremacy Culture in Worship.

To view the resolution, see the First Congregational United Church of Christ A Resolution to Become a Racial Justice Church document here.

Two women standing on either side of a large black banner with rainbow-colored accents that reads 'Black Lives Matter' and includes additional messages supporting disabled, trans, and femme communities. The women are outdoors in front of a metal fence and a playground, with trees and houses in the background on a sunny day.

FCUCC’s commitment to the Black Lives Matter movement is provided in a pastoral message in a recent FCUCC Signpost newsletter here.
