Regional Opportunities
The Christian Church of Mid-America seeks to become an anti-racist, multi-cultural region that is a fully inclusive, transformed church, where racial and cultural differences are seen as assets. Our Reconciliation Ministry’s mission is to nurture the wholeness of the church by dismantling systemic racism and other oppressive structures toward becoming a church that demonstrates true community, deep Christian spirituality, and passion for justice. This ministry is accomplished through organizing, education, and advocacy.
The ARPRJM team is seeking new members to join in this essential work to help develop and execute programming to meet these goals. They invite clergy and laity with a passion for racial justice to add their voices, ideas, time, and talents to the group that’s led by Associate Regional Minister Rev. Angela Williams. Volunteers will be offered the opportunity to become trained anti-racism course leaders and conduct training sessions periodically throughout the Region and online. Please contact Rev. Williams for more information or to volunteer.
Do you have human resource, managerial, or personnel experience? Do you think it’s important that our Region has current and thorough personnel policies? Do you have ideas about how we can support, challenge, and assess our Regional staff? If you answered “YES” to ANY of these questions, we invite you to serve on our Mid-America Personnel Committee. Their meetings and tasks may be infrequent but are vital and include periodic review/revision of policies, annual performance evaluation, resulting compensation recommendations, and participation in any hiring or termination situations that arise. Both clergy and lay persons with the desire to help create the most positive and productive working environment possible are invited to contact Committee Chairperson Rev. Sharae Kelley to volunteer or get more information.
