Churches such as ours that are Open and Affirming (ONA) have publicly declared that those of all sexual orientations and gender identities (LGBTQ+) are welcome in the full life and ministry (e.g., membership, leadership, and employment) of the church. The term promises a spirit of hospitality and a willingness to live out that welcome in meaningful ways. No matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome to journey together with us!
