A Call for Equity and Full Participation as General Conference 2028 Extends to Harare, Zimbabwe
Religion and Race
Challenging and equipping the people of The United Methodist Church to be an intentionally diverse body of Christ, the General Commission on Religion and Race offers tools to guide conversations about racial justice, racism and religion. It leads in systemic transformation, monitors for racial equity, equips churches and church leadership in areas of cultural competency, prepares and supports leaders engaging in cross-racial/cross-cultural ministry and serves as a fair-process advocate in matters of racial discrimination.
Our Work
GCORR is committed to equipping churches dismantle racism by championing diversity, equity and inclusion; developing interculturally competent leaders; and catalyzing authentic community. We also address injustice broadly pertaining to issues of poverty, nationalism, tribal conflicts, gender discrimination, homophobia, disability and generational bias.
The General Commission on Religion and Race has coordinated resources to help your congregation engage faithful conversations, deepen discipleship, and navigate challenging topics with theological grounding and practical tools as you prepare for the months ahead.
The General Commission for Religion and Race presents their Advent resources for local churches to explore and utilize. Let your church's Advent carry from the pulpit to the Sunday School room!
