This office is very respectful of the possessors of the history of Black contributions in the Episcopal Church, and encourages the sharing of knowledge and experiences in ways that are helpful and supportive. The saints that went before us opened and paved a brilliant path to bring us to this juncture in our history. Their struggle will be in vain if we fail to stay the course. We need to build bridges so that those who come after us will have the necessary links to continue to build the structure on the foundation already in place.

We welcome your suggestions and recommendations in building our historical facts library. Kindly send your suggestions and submissions to aifill@episcopalchurch.org.
