500+ LGBTQI Christian Leaders Stand In Solidarity With Our United Methodist Colleagues
To our LGBTQI colleagues in ministry in the United Methodist Church,
As you gather for General Conference and engage in difficult conversations around inclusion, we are sending you so much love and light. We sign this letter as openly LGBTQI clergy, future pastors, and faith leaders in our own denominations who stand with you in solidarity. Though we come from different traditions, you are our family in Christ and our siblings in the common struggle to live fully and authentically into our God-given identities and callings.
On Monday, we read the words many of you offered together to your beloved church. Our hearts swelled with pride at your prophetic and vulnerable truth-telling, even as they also clenched in empathy at the fear and risk many of you must have felt. With your words still reverberating inside of us, emboldening our own faith, we want you to know that you are not alone. Those of you who came out in Monday’s letter, and those who have come before you, and those who are still not able to live out your sexual and gender identities openly: we see you and we support you and we are surrounding you with love.
Even as we continue to work for LGBTQI justice in our own churches, we pray also for inclusion and justice in yours. We share your frustration for the ways in which the church continues to deny your gifts and calls. And we join you in crying out against the injustice of such discrimination.
In the days ahead, as the United Methodist Church prayerfully considers how to be obedient to God’s will, we pray that they will recognize their call to celebrate and uplift all of the LGBTQI Methodists who seek to serve God’s church in ministry. We pray also for you: that you would find comfort and strength and ongoing assurance that you are beloved.
Alongside all of you, we hope and work for a church and world that fully reflect the spirit of God by embracing all of God’s children. We give thanks for all that you are, for your faithful witness, and for your ministries. And we echo your message: it’s time.
In Christ,
