The New Hope Racial Justice group mission is to educate and inspire to action the congregation regarding the continuing injustices affecting people of color in our community, city, state, and world. As a Matthew 25 church we are committed to focusing our efforts on the dismantling of structural racism.

The Racial Justice  group meets the 3rd Sunday of every month with the exclusion of June - August.
The meetings are held in the conference room from 10:45 - 12:30.

The Racial Justice group originated 7 years ago. Members Jeanette Macon and Ann Milam, both being for Mississippi, felt that the congregation would benefit from their personal perspectives on racism as they experienced it. Their desire morphed into monthly meetings focused on books, articles, discussion about racism that still exists today and how to affect changes in current policy, attitudes and action.
