Now we have to shape what some have started calling; The Church at Home. Although I keep asking myself; What do those who do not have a home do? For this reason, at the same time, I am declaring today in our Holyrood Church a Lenten day of prayer, fasting and reading the Bible in the Time of the Coronavirus.
Celebrating the LGBTQ+ Children of God
Submitted by holyroodchurch on October 7, 2021 - 21:14
Not in spite of our otherness, our queerness, but rather celebrating our expressions and identities as inextricably tied up in our God-given gifts, and are, in and of themselves, a gift to the church, as we reflect the rainbow diversity of God’s creation.
A Blessing of Change
What we choose changes us. Who we love transforms us.
How we create remakes us. Where we live reshapes us.
So, in all our choosing, O God, make us wise;
In all our loving, O Christ, make us bold;
In all our creating, O Spirit, give us courage;
In all our living, may we become whole.
National Coming Out Day raises public awareness about the LGBTQ+ community and champions the idea that homophobia thrives in silence. On this day, many people who identify as LGBTQ+ will “come out” (a term stemming from the phrase “come out of the closet”) to friends or family about there gender identity. The history of the LGBTQ+ movement is a beacon of light — its champions are honored, and it underlines the personal being political. It’s also a chance to celebrate the liberation spirit.
