Welcome to SCOR

Can we talk? ...about race, about our churches, and about the reality of racism as a barrier to Christ's command that we love one another?

The Sacred Conversation on Race (SCOR) Ministry Team is a committee of the Penn Central Conference, United Church of Christ. We are lay leaders and clergy who have gathered with a shared conviction that the issues of race are urgent and relevant to our faith and our churches. It is our purpose to reveal racism as a barrier to Christ's command that we love one another, through methods of education, support and advocacy.

Welcome to the SCOR blog, an opportunity for individuals and congregations of the Penn Central Conference to grow in their understandings of race. Here you'll find conversations, resources, and observations to celebrate diversity and eradicate racism: one person at a time, one congregation at a time. You might also want to visit the United Church of Christ's Sacred Conversation on Race at http://www.ucc.org/sacred-conversation.
