Many thanks to Canon Steve Welch, the editor of Good News in the Garden State for publishing an update on the ongoing work of the Diocese of New Jersey Racial Justice Review! The article, entitled "Reparations Commission Researching History of Slavery and Racism in the Diocese" summarizes the findings and work to this point, explains how this is actually good news, and provides some possibilities for how congregations can engage in research and support of the initiative. Onward!
