Rector’s Forum @ 10:00 a.m., May 9, 2021: Telling the Whole Story – Civic Memory in Los Angeles

As with our nation, the full history of our region has often been buried or whitewashed. In April 2021, Mayor Garcetti’s Civic Memory Working Group released its report (http://civicmemory.la/) with 18 key recommendations for telling the whole story of our history, particularly around race. On Sunday, May 9, we were joined in the Rector’s Forum by four members of the working group — two All Saints church parishioners, Bill Deverell and Becky Nicolaides; Christopher Hawthorne, (working group chair and chief design officer for Mayor Garcetti), and Gail Kennard (Los Angeles Cultural Commission), to discuss both the findings and the process … and what we can learn as we start telling our whole story as All Saints Church.

Sermon @ 11:15 a.m., May 9, 2021: I don’t know. I wonder. I try to trust.

“As the years go by, the less I know … and the more I wonder. And the more I wonder … the more I try to be OK … with trusting without knowing. “
