RECONCILE
CONFERENCE 2019
As Common Ground Northeast continues it's journey of pursuing racial equity and reconciliation we believe it's critical to make space as a church to engage this difficult and very critical conversation.
This year's Reconcile Conference served that purpose. The Reconcile Conference gave us perspectives and experiences to de-center biases, blindspots, and our own experiences in order to gain a greater understanding of our call to be reconcilers in our community.
This conference featured speakers from a number of disciplines and areas of focus to provide tools we can use in our everyday lives.
