Our Second Offering this week, in recognition of All Nations Heritage Week, will support The Office of Race Relations. The Office of Race Relations resources Christian Reformed members and congregations as they dismantle the causes and effects of racism within the body of believers and throughout the world. They help us to live as God’s diverse and unified family. As a denomination, we believe that dismantling racism is not peripheral to our Christian calling. It’s a Gospel issue! The church must live as God’s diverse and unified family—or risk selling the Gospel short. The Ministry of Race Relations is mandated by synod "to design, organize, and implement programs that will assist the denomination, churches, and members in eliminating the causes and effects of racism within the body of believers and throughout the world."
