RIC Welcome Statement Draft 2

As part of the journey to become Reconciling in Christ, a welcome statement for Calvary has been drafted! Thanks to all who offered feedback at the forum in February. The next feedback forum is scheduled after worship on March 23! Below is the revised statement.

Calvary is committed to fostering a diverse community
that embraces racial equity and the full inclusion of all God's people--
one where all can receive and share God's love,
and this means everyone, including you!

As a community of faith, we encourage and provide
opportunities to learn and grow together.

Calvary welcomes...

people of varying sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions;
all races, ethnicities, cultures, citizenship, and immigration statuses;
any physical, mental, and emotional ability;
any shape, size, and age;
anyone struggling with addiction or on a recovery journey;
and whatever your marital status, family strcuture, political affiliation,
faith tradition, education level, or economic status.

Regardless of who you are, there is a place for you here.
