Anti-Racism Ministry

In 2002 the Alabama-Northwest Florida Regional Board adopted a formal statement embracing an anti-racist identity.  Working against the sin of racism in the culture and in the church has been a priority for more than a decade.  An Anti-Racism Team of nine persons is formally approved each biennium and charged with the task of leading efforts to provide anti-racism training and to encourage “true community” among congregations that seek to work against racism and toward reconciliation.   This Team also monitors the decision-making bodies of the Region to make sure the Region is being appropriately inclusive as it orders its ministry.
