Archbishops’ Anti-Racism Task Force report

Ethnic Minorities Charter
The Bishop’s Council approved this Charter in July 2020.
In June 2005, St Albans Diocesan Synod approved the adoption of our Race Equality Policy – you can read this at the link below.
Why race equality is important
The rich and wonderful diversity of God’s people reminds us that we are all his children and that he loves us equally and asks nothing more than that we love and respect each other.
All of us, even those who live in communities which are predominantly white British, need to consider that we are all part of a larger diocesan community which includes people from a huge range of ethnic backgrounds.
A former Chair of this Committee, said, “By adopting the policy, parishes will demonstrate that they as a church – and we as a diocese – are committed to ensuring that all people stand before God, equally, as his children. We will be declaring that any form of racism is completely unacceptable amongst God’s children.”
