The Congregational Toolkit
Open up the Toolbox!
​
​Below is a guide to what is in the Congregational Toolkit.
Your Tools for Racial Justice and Healing
Pick up your tools to:
-
Build relationships across the racial divide
-
Take action vs. systemic racism
-
Help sustain your congregation for the racial justice journey.
Interwoven Conversation Cards!
Pick up your own deck of the Interwoven Congregations Conversation Cards! Each deck includes 40 discussion prompts to help foster deeper dialogue around issues of race and what we can do. The cards can be used in large or small group settings or for individual study. (Available in August 2025)

Scriptures for Racial Justice & Healing
If you're Jewish or Christian and need to go to the well of your faith for strength, guidance, inspiration or accountablity, tap into Interwoven's listing of scriptures from the Hebrew Bible and New Testament by themes for racial justice. The scriptural listing is useful for Bible study, sermon preparation, personal devotion, and more. We will be working to add spiritual texts from the Muslim, Baha'i and other faith traditions.

The Interwoven Congregations Network
Joining the Interwoven Congregations Network is the most powerful tool of all! It includes all the Toolkit elements from our website PLUS significantly expanded content for Network members. And, you get the great benefit of networking with other people from around the world who are passionate about promoting racial justice!

Interwoven Congregations Quarterly
Follow the Interwoven Congregations Quarterly -- a publication where we have deep conversations with people doing racial justice through congregations or tackling the key racial justice issues of our day.
Interwoven Congregations Roundtables
We organize quarterly online "Interwoven Congregations Roundtables" which feature a subject matter expert on some aspect of doing racial justice at the congregational level. We then have a Peer Exchange in the second half where congregations can share what's going well and where they could use some new ideas. The next Roundtable will be on August 28th at 7 p.m. EDT on Zoom and will focus on sharing tools to help congregations get out of the gate with their antiracism work! Register here!
