We actively advocate for the work of the mission of UBE in many ways including:
Annually, we:
- Work on social justice issues with 2020’s focus being on the census and the elections
- Host an Absalom Jones celebration event.
- Work to lift the visibility of UBE and people of the African diaspora so we will be a central part of the Northern California Episcopal Community.
- Participate in the Regional and National meetings of UBE.
Periodically we:
• Host educational forums on topics of interest to people of African descent such as mental health, Traces of the Trade, etc.
• Provide training and support to candidates in the process of discernment and/or candidacy for ministry.
• Support candidates of the African diaspora pursuing positions and work to secure a voice/seat on bishop search committees in our various dioceses.
