Resources for Racial Reconciliation
Westside has a deep heart for racial reconciliation. From our ongoing friendships with churches in our city to our long-term partnerships with inner-city ministries, and our established support to children and communities in need in other cultures around the world, we aspire to be agents of love and reconciliation to the people we touch. We believe reconciliation is accomplished through the Love of Jesus Christ directing and inspiring us our relationships daily.
We hope this updated list of resources will be helpful to you and encourage awareness, deeper understanding, and the hope that God can provide.
