A New Year Message from Our President

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” – Philippians 3:13-14

WE STAND to unify the diverse cultures, concerns, and gifts of Black Episcopalians in Arizona and to become a community of action against systemic racism. WE STAND to advocate for the African diaspora within the Episcopal Diocese of Arizona and The Episcopal Church. WE STAND to engage fully in the Jesus Movement as we Become the Beloved Community. – from the UBE Arizona Mission Statement

With gratitude for all you have done this past year, I look forward to standing alongside you all in the new year in service to God, our communities, and all peoples.
