Our ministry creates a platform for storytelling around race, justice, equality, equity, and reconciliation available for all people as we walk in the path of Jesus. To pray, educate, and advocate for those who need assistance in this area. Defend the poor and fatherless. Do justice to the afflicted and needy. Deliver the poor and needy. Rid them out of the hand of the wicked. Psalm 82:3-4
Ministry Leader, Deaconess Eleanor Holder-Elcock Parker
