Help ReconcilingWorks welcome the newest Reconciling in Christ (RIC) community: Christ the Servant Lutheran Church (Denton, TX).
Their welcome statement reads:
“God’s grace encompasses everyone.
God welcomes, cherishes, and affirms each person,
as all are made in God’s image.At Christ the Servant, we strive to look like God’s vision for one new humanity, united under God’s grace in Jesus Christ (Eph. 2:14-16). We acknowledge the harm that is often done in the name of Jesus when the church excludes, dividing all people into “us vs. them.” We affirm and celebrate LGBTQIA+ people and relationships. We commit to the work of racial equity, social and economic justice, creation care, and unity with all humanity under the Gospel.
Whatever your race, ethnicity, or skin color;
Whatever your sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression;
Whatever your health, family status, or income;
Whatever your religious background (or lack thereof);
Whatever your political persuasion;
Whether you are young, old, or somewhere in between;
Feeling guilty or feeling blessed;
Or just trying to make grandma happy,We welcome you as you are.
It’s what Jesus would do.“
