FROM THE BISHOP
DAVID GRAVES


I received a lot of feedback from people about “labels” following my Episcopal Address at Annual Conference. I recently sat down with Rev. Abra Lattany-Reed, who is now officially on staff as the Director of Diversity and Justice Ministries for the South Georgia Annual Conference, to unpack how labels can be hurtful and distract us from our ministry.

Watch this video of our conversation.

I also want to say how excited I am to have Abra in this role and for the gifts and graces she brings to the table. I look forward to the work we have ahead of us in creating a culture of belonging and justice. I want us to lead in such a way that continues the work of the South Georgia Conference as we strive to do our part to change systems of injustice.

Dear Lord, let it be.

In Christ,

Bishop David Graves
