Help ReconcilingWorks welcome a new Reconciling in Christ (RIC) community:
Grace Lutheran Church in Des Moines, Iowa.
Their welcome statement reads:
“Grace Lutheran Church commits to welcoming and celebrating all people; those in the LGBTQIA+ community, Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and their allies. We commit to the work of anti-racism, liberation, social and environmental justice for all of God’s creation. We affirm the sacredness of all people, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression. We affirm the sacredness of all those who have experienced exclusion because of race, ability, age, or culture. We affirm the sacredness of those who wrestle with addiction, physical or mental health, imprisonment, socio-economic circumstances, or anything that too often divides us.
No matter the labels others may place upon you, or the labels you may place upon yourself, here at Grace you will find a home among friends in need of a Savior. You are welcome here.“
