Church

Oh yea, church.  The topic was Beyond Welcoming.  In 2003-2004 Beacon went through the ‘Welcoming Congregation’ process.  More info here.  It’s a process where the entire congregation goes through examining homophobia and transphobia and all the hurtful, societal messages about the worth and dignity of LGBTIfolk.  I was involved in that process as a facilitator (not to the extent Peggy was, but some) and I figured given the topic I’d better go.  I really enjoyed the service, but didn’t hang around for the AGM afterwards.
