A Special General Conference of the United Methodist Church will meet in February 2019 in an attempt to resolve the denomination’s differences over homosexuality. This summer, the Love Your Neighbor Coalition (which includes MFSA and RMN) met at a convocation – For Everyone Born – that included planning the coalition’s witness at the Special GC. At our meeting on Thursday, September 13, we will hear from Rev. Nancy Mossman, who attended the convocation and will report her impressions and the plans that are being made for witness by those supporting an inclusive church.
More than a dozen MFSA supporters from Austin have expressed their intent to travel to St. Louis for the Special GC in February. We will discuss plans and needs for that important and historic witness in the life of the denomination.
Location: Saint John’s UMC, 2140 Allandale Road, with snacks and mingling at 6:30p and the program at 7p. All are welcome! Hope to see you there!
