We recognize racism as a sin. We commit to challenging unjust systems of power and access. We will work for equal and equitable opportunities in employment and promotion, education and training; in voting, access to public accommodations, and housing; to credit, loans, venture capital, and insurance; to positions of leadership and power in all elements of our life together; and to full participation in the Church and society.
The General Commission on Religion and Race, the Council of Bishops, United Methodist Women, the General Board of Church and Society and United Methodist Communications have come together to share how United Methodists stand against racism.

During Lent 2021, the Council of Bishops invited the people of The United Methodist Church to a season of introspection and self-examination.
These videos continue to be an inspiration, challenging us to follow Jesus as we confront the sin of racism and remember the promise of Easter—that liberation is possible.
This Lenten devotional series is another step in which our bishops are leading us in a journey of repentance, reconciliation and action in which we invite the whole church to participate.
Accompanying each video is a journal page to guide reflection and conversation.
