Are We "REDI"?: A Survey From The UCC Florida Conference

The Race, Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion (REDI) Committee of the Board of the Florida Conference of the United Church of Christ invites congregations to fill out this form to help us answer the question, “Are We REDI?” We hope this REDI form provides a snapshot of our congregations as we seek to offer an extravagant welcome to all. We also look forward to enriching congregational worship, membership, and finances by becoming a more REDI Conference. The United Church of Christ Covenantal Designations that follow in this survey, are a preliminary tool to gauge how we might become more REDI. The survey should take about 5 minutes to complete. Please mark “Yes” or “No” next to the designation that your congregation has approved. You will also be able to indicate if your church is hearing the call to a designation and an opportunity to select if you want more information. Thanks in advance for being part of our ongoing efforts towards living into being a REDI Conference!

This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.
