Sacred Ground is part of the Beloved Community Initiative, the Episcopal Church’s long-term commitment to racial healing, reconciliation, and justice in our personal lives, our ministries, and our society.
There will be sessions of Sacred Ground going on at various locations throughout the Diocese of Pittsburgh this year. Please encourage friends, family, fellow parishioners and other congregations or faith based groups to participate.
There are some very positive changes to Level 1 based on feedback from the surveys from participants. This will give us time to implement some of the new initiatives (less readings, more up to date articles, more discussion time, and only 8 sessions). We are also adding a “Sacred Ground” Level 2 for those who took Sacred Ground and want a deeper dive into the content, more research and/or more action oriented programming. The level 2 sessions consist of 6 sessions.
New Level 1 Session for Sacred Ground on Tuesdays starting Feb. 13, 2024 at St. Thomas Church, Oakmont, at 6 PM. Dinner will be provided.
New Level 2 Sacred Ground Sessions on Thursdays starting on Feb. 15, 2024 at St. Thomas Church, Oakmont, at 6 PM. Dinner will be provided.
New Level 2 Sacred Ground Sessions on Wednesdays, April 3 – May 8, 2024 in the Conference Room at Calvary Church, East Liberty. Time TBD. Dinner will be provided.
