Dear fellow followers of Jesus,
I rejoice with our lesbian and gay sisters and brothers at the recent decisions by the Supreme Court, and in the General Convention of The Episcopal Church. They have been treated as second-class citizens, and lesser children of God for far too long.
I also thank God for the diversity in our church, and am grateful that the minority voice of those who struggle with these decisions is not only acknowledged, but respected. There is a welcome place for all in The Episcopal Church.
There is also much more work to do as we continue to seek justice in our communities and in the world. Racism, poverty, sexism, and violence are but a few of the evils in our lives that God calls us to challenge. Please join me in praying for the courage and strength and grace we need to be about God’s mission in the world.
