SUMMARY:Step into Black History: Footsoldiers
DESCRIPTION:How Everyday People from the Civil Rights Movement Continue to Inspire & Inform Anti-racist Action Today\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Black Freedom Movement of the 1950’s and 60’s called upon everyday people to take a stand against racism. As folks answered this call\, they became known as foot soldiers and\, collectively\, their actions contributed to the success of the movement \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn June 2024\, The Race & Christian Community Initiative (RCCI) convened 9 people from Boston to embark on a Southern Civil Rights Pilgrimage where we had the opportunity to meet with foot soldiers. Courageous Conversations Toward Racial Justice has invited some of these local pilgrims to share how their encounters with foot soldiers informed their understanding of activism and inspire them to take action today.The framing and introduction for this panel will be offered by John Williams\, Executive Director of the Center for Restorative Justice (CFRJ). The CFRJ hosts these Southern Civil Right Pilgrimages and will share about how you could participate in such an experience this summer or beyond. \nPlease RSVP HERE – Zoom link will be provided after RSVP.

As our Friend\, Jesus promises to never leave us or forsake us. In Him\, we have his guarantee that we will never be alone through the ups and downs of life. \nIf you’ve never experienced life lived for Jesus\, we especially invite you to join us. You will not be disappointed. \nCome and let’s experience together everything that Jesus is and promises to us. \nRegister Here.

SUMMARY:Legacy of Slavery at Harvard University tour
DESCRIPTION:“If you abide in my word\, you are truly my disciples\, and you will know the truth\, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:31-32) \n\n\n\n\n“VERITAS” – Harvard’s motto “Truth” inscribed on gates\, doorways\, and sculptures all over campus \n\n\n\nJoin UniteBoston’s Sankofa cohort for Legacy of Slavery at Harvard University tour\, which uncovers the truth of Harvard University’s entanglements with the institution of slavery through a 10-stop tour. The stops on the tour provide an opportunity to learn about a part of Harvard’s history that has long been hidden in plain sight. In addition\, the tour elevates stories of Black women and men whose resistance and leadership have shaped the University—and our nation. \n\n\n\nThe tour will be led by Rev. Rita Powell\, director of the Episcopal Chaplaincy at Harvard University. We will take special note of the way Christian congregations and churches have contributed or resisted the institution of slavery\, and the repair work that is taking place today. The tour will go from 2:30pm – 4:30pm at the Harvard-Episcopal chaplaincy building\, 1A Garden Street\, Cambridge MA 02138\, and will conclude with a time of refreshments from 4:30 to 5:00pm in the same location. \nFrom Megan Lietz\, director of the Race & Christian Community Initiative and Sankofa group member: “Boston is known for its world-class colleges and universities. But many of these institutions were built on the backs of enslaved people. Take the time to better understand how our city’s academic success has been shaped by the institution of slavery through a history of slavery at Harvard tour.” \n\nClick Here to Register\n\nP.S. If you’re not able to make it on this date and time\, the tour can also be experienced online here and there are many other resources regarding Harvard and the Legacy of Slavery \n\n\n\nP.P.S. Curious what the tour is like? Dr. Michael James\, a previous UniteBoston cohort member\, has written a blog sharing his experience in the walking tour about how it nurtured love and a shared humanity. \n

SUMMARY:"Equip the Saints" Program for Black Preachers
DESCRIPTION:Application Deadline is June 15! \nMassachusetts Council of Churches will serve Black clergy from across its network through cohorts of preacher-practitioners\, regular podcasts\, a “Preachers-in-Residence” program\, peer-to-peer support\, and an annual preaching symposium called “Sound the Trumpet in Zion.” They will prioritize Black preacher mental health and engage in a pilgrimage to the African Meeting House on Nantucket\, an icon of local resilient Black preaching. \nPURPOSE \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur purpose in “Equip the Saints” is first and foremost support for Black clergy. From our design meeting\, Black clergy shared that they felt the despair and malaise of their congregation\, and their own impending sense of burnout through the multiple pandemics of the past three years. Everything we do in this program point towards increased vocational support. We believe this focus on support for Black clergy is just and appropriate\, given the systemic racism of our region and escalating white supremacist violence. Our overall objective also includes equipping all clergy to faithfully and biblically preach against the idolatry of white supremacy cloaked in Christianity and preach towards the unity of the body of Christ. \nPROCESS \nBlack clergy from across the Church in Massachusetts will be eligible to apply to join Cohorts of 20 preacher-practitioners per year over the course of five program years\, starting in June 2024. We will support and strengthen compelling preaching through regular podcasts\, annual clergy cohorts\, via “Preachers-in-Residence\,” and peer-to-peer support with an annual Preaching Symposium\, “Blow the Trumpet in Zion.” \nWe prioritize Black preacher mental health with two sessions of support from a preacher-social worker each year. We aim to cultivate and strengthen a fellowship of committed and confident preachers across Massachusetts. \nEach Cohort will begin their preaching formation journey together with a pilgrimage to the African Meeting House on Nantucket\, an icon of local resilient Black preaching that very few people other than wealthy white individuals have been able to visit. \nEach Cohort will engage in a rhythm of learning\, practice\, and reflection with Preachers-in-Residence. Preachers will then return to their congregation to practice their new skills or ideas. A second session returns to the Cohort for a reflection on their practice. In this way\, we build up both preaching resources and capacity in our network of preachers. The annual Preaching Symposium\, modeled off of CTS’s Mixed Methods Preaching Conference\, serves as a Church wide gathering to learn\, and grow in strength and solidarity. \nLearn More Here \nApply Here
