Religious Declaration on Sexual Morality, Justice, and Healing

Faith communities must therefore be truth-seeking, courageous and just. We call for:

Theological reflection that integrates the wisdom of excluded, often silenced peoples, and insights about sexuality from medicine, social science, the arts and humanities.

Full inclusion of women and LGBT persons in congregational life, including their ordination and marriage equality.

Sexuality counseling and education throughout the lifespan from trained religious leaders.

Support for those who challenge sexual oppression and who work for justice within their congregations and denominations.

Journeying Toward a USA National Conference

BY THE USA APOSTOLIC TEAM

As a global Community of Christ, we share a common mission to proclaim Jesus Christ and promote communities of joy, hope, love, and peace. We share a common identity and message that includes a common set of Enduring Principles and belief statements.

Q: Has church leadership already determined the outcome on issues of same-gender marriage and ordaining people in same-gender relationships?

A: No, church leadership is committed to discernment leading to the USA National Conference. This process will include spiritual practices, dialogue, scripture reflection, and study of credible resources that provide multiple perspectives on human sexuality and healthy, faithful, and committed relationships.

(O.K. Here is the funny part. I guess they had to say something since most of their names are in this thread naming them as homosexual agenda proponents. lois)

The USA Apostolic Team invites the church in the USA into this discernment process with no predetermined agenda or outcome. This does not infer that individual apostles do not have perspectives on the issues. It does, however, signal our trust in God, the impress of the Holy Spirit, and the collective wisdom of the US body to discern the mind and will of God on these issues.

Does it kind of seem like they are lying?
