Another RIC statement

When Dave was preaching at Central Lutheran in Portland, he picked up this RIC statement as printed in their bulletin:

Welcome! In response to the call in Romans 15:7 to "welcome one another...as Christ has welcomed you for the glory of God," we, the members of Central Lutheran Church, join hands with all our sisters and brothers regardless of race, age, gender identity, marital status, physical and mental abilities, sexual orientations, national origin, or economic status. We celebrate the diversity of God's family and our unity as God's people.

I like it!

Thank you so much for leading the session Sunday, Kelly. You are so gracious, tactful and diplomatic I know it will go well. I really like the Central Lutheran RIC statement as well. I will be eager to see what attendance we have and what comments are raised on Sunday.
