With your participation, we can create a viral social media video campaign that can be a balm to those who need it during these challenging days.Meals on Wheels of Peters Township is Starting Service in Bridgeville! That is why we want to create a viral, social media campaign that will overwhelm our trans and nonbinary with messages of affirmation, solidarity, and support. This is a time to live out loud the love our faith calls us to. The harmful, negative, stigmatizing rhetoric of many candidates, legislators, elected officials, and civic leaders have been overwhelming, attacking members of our community who already experience marginalization and discrimination at significant levels, amplifying the despair and mental health challenges so many endure. Over the past several months there has been an onslaught of anti-trans and nonbinary legislation or actions in the majority of states in this country, some of which have been passed and signed into law. The United Church of Christ Trans-Nonbinary Strategy Group is calling on all faith leaders to record and post on social media a 30-second video offering words of encouragement, support, and solidarity with people of Trans and Nonbinary experience, their families, loved ones, and allies using the hashtags: #TransJustice #UCCMovement. This is the promise we make to you … all are welcome. We welcome all people to share our Church in worship, marriage, baptism, funeral, and fellowship. This means that we believe that since we’re all made in God’s image, all people are created equal, and are to be treated, loved, and welcomed equally, regardless of gender, orientation, race, economic status, or physical or mental ability. The next important thing to know about us is that we are an Open and Affirming congregation. We invite all Christians and seekers after God to partake of the Lord’s Supper with us regardless of denominational background.
We believe in a Triune God who loves EVERYONE, no matter who they are or where they are on life’s journey. We are a very friendly bunch, and we love to meet new people and share new experiences with them! The best way to make new friends is to get to know each other a little bit, so here are a few things you should know about US!įirst, we are a part of the United Church of Christ, which means we are passionate about our faith and open in our thinking. We’re so glad you’ve decided to check us out!
