On this thanksgiving Sunday and coming.out day we want you to know:
You belong in church. You are welcome to worship, lead, share communion, serve, and be part of this community.
We’re giving thanks for the LGBTQ+ people who enrich our churches, families, and neighbourhoods. We’re grateful for your faith, your love, and everything you bring.
If church has given you reason to doubt that welcome, we understand that a video won’t settle it. You deserve to experience it in how you’re treated and how you’re able to participate.
We’re also grateful for those who question what they were taught and explore a relationship with God beyond the fear they grew up with. Your questions belong here, too. They help all of us grow.
We give thanks to God for creating us in love, to Jesus for showing us how to love one another, and to the Holy Spirit for helping us grow in faith, ask honest questions, and welcome each other more fully.
Happy Thanksgiving from University Community Church, a Presbyterian and affirming congregation beside the University of Windsor. Come as you are.
