Where:
UUF Adult RE Classroom
GLBTQI Welcoming Congregation Starting November 7 and running for six sessions on Wednesdays at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m., we will be looking at how we can become a more welcoming congregation. We are already a Welcoming Congregation. However, it is time to look again how we as a organization may not be affirming of the rainbow diversity of human expression. A Welcoming Congregation is one that goes through discussions, study, and discernment to become affirming, accepting, and welcoming of people, regardless of their sexual and gender orientations (GLBTQI = Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender, Questioning, Intersex). It is time again to ask ourselves how we can be welcoming of all people by taking a refresher course. During the months of November and December the ministers will be part of a team that holds discussions and learning opportunities for members of our congregation as we struggle with what it means to lift oppression from stereotyping of all kinds.
