Faith-Based Anti-Racism Movement
Fellow:
Rev. Sunyoung Park
Hi everyone, I was called to ordained ministry as an immigrant as many immigrants in the Scripture crossed cultural boundaries. I am Rev. Sunyoung Park, lead pastor at Hope UMC, Torrance. We are racially diverse, welcoming, and have a passion for community service and social justice. Shared Bread, Family Promise in the South Bay, the LA County Department of Children and Family Services, and Torrance Unified School District are our partners. We have a racial- healing and anti-racism book club, in which one-third of the congregation is participating. After the first book, “White Fragility,” we are currently engaged in the 2nd book, “How to Be Anti-racist.” It will be our honor to invite you as a guest speaker for one of our sessions!
