After our forum on reparations for churches on May 7, the Becoming Beloved Community task force wants to move forward in our process by examining the history of Palo Alto and St. Mark’s with regard to both social and economic racial injustice . LeeAnne McDermott who has been working on our archives has agreed to help us, and we would like to invite anyone who has an interest in history and the complex work of restitution and reparation to join this committee. We hope to plan a strategy, with the help of Peter Jarrett-Schell’s book, to begin to understand our particular history as a parish. Please contact LeeAnne McDermott or Diane Guinta if you would like to join this important committee.
