The COS Antiracism and Reconciliation Team is compiling a list of curated resources to help our congregation understand and engage in the work of becoming an antiracist church.

We offer this list of resources, but we do not endorse all of the views expressed by the content creators. We hope this will serve as a starting point for fruitful conversations, and we trust church members will use their good judgment in engaging with this material.

You can find the list by visiting the Antiracism Resources page by clicking here.

Please send any suggestions for this list to Arend Vander Pols at arend@avpservices.net
