This includes instruction for setting up a prayer room with six stations. Each station involves an action for participants to do, a Bible verse to reflect on, and a quote from people whose voices are not always heard. Quotes included a homosexual, women who survived Rwanda Holocaust, Native American, and Transgender pastor. I created this for an adult retreat featuring Brennan Manning. I received great feedback and people appreciated not only having a Bible Verse but another reflection to ponder.

This issue of race and racism is an important one in the church. One that is not addressed sufficiently enough. This is something that needs to be talked about if ELCA churches are going to do what they have been talking about for years and doing very little to make it happen: become diverse - culturally and racially. I hope that this resource and the movie "A time for burning" will serve as good discussion starter as we tackle this issue together.
