Congregational Representatives- To be determined after an initial conversation with Bethany Leadership.  We are inviting a trio that will allow a high level of trust.  When known, please share the name and email of the people who will be part of the initial leadership of this ministry over the next two years.  Please do not hesitate to reach out to the Bethany Team as your congregation is discerning.
Our pilot cohort of Bethany Congregations had a common intention of anti-racism work. Does your church have an intention or area of action or focus?  -It is ok if you are in discernment about this.  
How has your community worked toward building the Beloved Community in the past? What joys and challenges have you encountered? How has this work been impacted by the challenges and opportunities posed by COVID-19?   *
How might you be collectively stepping toward anti-racism work in the future?  (Our time together will be spent doing some discernment of next steps, so if this is not quite clear right now do not worry! We will listen for God’s nudging together.)    
Do you have any previous experience with the Bethany Fellows ministry? If so, please tell us which Bethany Fellows ministry you have experienced and who participated. *
