Hi Friends,
Here is a blog/letter that I just posted on our church's website for our members:
Hi all, First, I just wanted to say how excited I was to help with Bessemer's Community VBS this week. It was a joy to meet the kids and to hear what they are learning about Jesus. Thanks to all who volunteered from our church and community to help - what a blessing it was.
Second, some of you are going to hear in the coming hours and days about the decisions of our denomination, the Presbyterian Church (USA), at its national meeting called the General Assembly. One issue that has weighed heavy on our church is that of human sexuality, specifically, homosexuality. I've been keeping up on the proceedings of the General Assembly, and they have made some decisions that may prove controversial around here in the upcoming days and months.
[Note: I deleted the rest of this post because it included a first draft of a letter that I updated and will post later today. Read on and find out all the details!]
