Social Justice Commission—Get Involved!

Lent is a sacred season of reflection, repentance, and renewal. In the Black Church tradition, it has also been a time of deep spiritual resistance and liberation, echoing the prophetic witness of Jesus, the Hebrew prophets, and the freedom struggles of our ancestors.

This 40-day devotional is designed to ground faith communities in scriptural reflection, prayer, and direct action, equipping us to confront racism, economic injustice, and the rise of white nationalism. Each day includes a full scripture passage, prayer, reflection question, and action step, guiding us to embody justice as an act of faith.
