The Episcopal Church has embraced the vision of Becoming Beloved Community — a long-term commitment to justice, healing and reconciliation. We are all on a lifelong journey toward God’s dream, and it is all of our work to do as we take intentional and faithful steps forward, as if moving through a labyrinth.
Two of the ways All Saints Pasadena is living out its commitment to this nationwide church initiative are:
Sacred Ground — a film-based race dialogue series primarily for white community members. Click here to learn more about the program. (Sacred Ground encourages white people to do the work they need to do to fully enter into partnership with people of color. All Saints Pasadena resonates deeply with this challenge and will offer Sacred Ground for those who identify as white in this initial iteration.)
For more information, please contact SacredGroundASC@gmail.com.
Sacred Being – is an opportunity for people of color to come together to find a pathway of liberation from internalized racial oppression. It completed its first cycle of sessions in December 2025 and is looking ahead to 2026.
Please express your interest in receiving updates regarding this important program.
Whoever you are and wherever you find yourself on the journey of faith there is a place for you as we all do the work of Becoming Beloved Community.
