Title: New Ministry Forming
Post by: gennee on March 12, 2012, 11:59:20 AM
In June, a new ministry for LGBTQI persons, allies, family and frineds will be formed at my church. A task force is being formed of which I will be a part of. The first meeting is on March 29th. I'm pretty excited about this because the church is inclusive and the pastor has this on his heart.

Excellent, no rock throwing from that pulpit!  :)
There are a lot of GLBTI believers, more than people realize, many of whom are closet believers because they have been ostracized by their church going peers. Fortunately the real Jesus wouldn't have behaved that way when He said, "he that is with me gathers and he who is against me scatters!" It's refreshing to hear that your pastor is a gatherer!
