A Service for Racial Justice Sunday 2026 | Online Church Service | The Church of England

Join us this week for our service for Racial Justice Sunday from the Diocese of Leeds, with other contributors from around the country.

Racial Justice Sunday is a day when all churches and communities are invited to reflect on the importance of racial justice; to give thanks for the gifts and beauty of human diversity, and to commit to end racism and acts of discrimination. Today’s service focuses on the Biblical mandate to “love your neighbour.”

With contributions from the Bishop of Croydon, Rosemarie Mallett and the Bishop of Kirkstall, Arun Arora who are the co lead Bishops for Racial Justice, the sermon is led by the Bishop of Huddersfield, Smitha Prasadam, and the service is led by Rev Wayne Simmonds along with many other contributors.
