Thank you to and executive director Jaryn Janeway for a meaningful time of learning and connection last week as we celebrate Pride and learn more about the work of Out Youth and the ways that this faith community can support the work of increasing love and belonging for LGBTQ+ young people. We believe every person is a beloved child of God, so we’re grateful for organizations like OutYouth that make intentional space for every young person. As Jaryn said, it is an honor to “stand beside someone while they figure out who they who they are.” FUMC Austin is honored to stand beside OutYouth and every one of God’s beloveds as we become who God dreamed us to be. May you always feel loved in your own journey to become who you are.

Yes, Pastor Taylor, we share your joy that today we celebrate the 70th anniversary of the ordination women in the ! Today, we celebrate the ministries of Pastor Taylor and Pastor Cathy—a dynamic clergywoman duo if we’ve ever seen one. On this anniversary, we also honor the clergywomen who have served before them and who helped to pave the way for their leadership. We are grateful for the clergywomen in extension ministry or who are retired who call First Church Austin their spiritual home. We celebrate the clergywomen who have experienced a call to ordained ministry or been trained for pastoral leadership while a part of this faith community. We remember with sorrow the women who experienced the denial of their calling while the church and culture struggled to accept the spiritual leadership of women. And it, as we acknowledge the foundation from which our future will emerge, we pray for the little children who will one day become the clergywomen who lead us.
