Richmond We know that walking beside one another and learning from communities is the best way to understand redemption. We are partnering with Shalom Gardens and learning from the Black Community throughout Richmond about our Nation’s history. Lodging will be at Centenary UMC in Richmond, VA. We will sleep on cots and have a shower trailer for showers. Meals are provided.

The trip begins on Monday and wraps on Friday. Registration is first-come, first-served, so be sure to sign up early to reserve space and have a greater chance of being assigned the week you want!
