SUMMARY:Convocation 2023: Onward to Perfection
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we kick off the celebration of RMN’s 40th anniversary and gather in person for the first time since 2020! \n\n\n\nJohn Wesley encouraged Methodists toward perfection in the lifelong pursuit of love. Love looks like affirmation in the face of persecution\, like kinship in the face of isolation\, and like courage in the face of despair. It is in that spirit that we’re gathering on October 13-15 at First United Methodist Church in Charlotte\, NC. \nPre-Convocation workshops will be offered on October 12th\, and post-Convo workshops will be offered on October 16th. \nThis year\, we kick off the celebration of 40 years as a movement and a people purposed for justice. We invite you to join us in Charlotte to reflect on our history and boldly claim the future of the Church for all God’s children. There’s work to do\, and there’s joy to share. And we want to do it all with you.

SUMMARY:Rally in Tallahassee for LGBTQ+ Justice
DESCRIPTION:Rainbow Alliance at Christ Church United Methodist in Fort Lauderdale\, FL\, invites you to join them in Tallahassee\, FL\, for a rally for LGBTQ+ justice on Saturday\, January 21\, from 9am-12pm. \n“The purpose of the Rally is to demonstrate mass visibility\, and to voice concern over legislation and executive actions that have made hundreds of thousands of folks of historically disenfranchised identities feel threatened\, unprotected\, and erased by government. We aim to remind our elected representatives that government of\, by\, and for the people must be responsive to the people. \n“Imagine what a showing from faith-based groups would demonstrate to both the LGBTQ+ community and those who would condemn us. Please join us. \n“At present\, our application to demonstrate on State Capitol grounds has been approved. We encourage groups to organize their own transportation to Tallahassee as we do not currently have any significant pool of funds – this is a grassroots initiative. Ultimately\, we hope to encourage and realize a national showing as Florida can be thought of as “ground zero” in that it is a place where ignorant\, biased & divisive legislation and policies are being passed which challenge concepts of civil society & dehumanize us.” \nTo register\, email: rtk212@gmail.com \nOrganizing partners include Equality Florida\, Pridelines\, SOJOURN\, Broward for Progress\, FL National Organization for Women\, PRISM\, FL Freedom to Read Project & AIDS Healthcare Foundation.

SUMMARY:Service of Repentance (by Washington Street UMC in Columbia\, SC)
DESCRIPTION:Washington Street United Methodist Church (WSUMC) will be holding a Service of Repentance and Healing For the Harm Inflicted on LGBTQIA+ persons on Thursday\, October 13 at 6:00 pm at WSUMC in its historic sanctuary. The service will coincide with Pride Festival weekend which will be taking place in downtown Columbia on Oct. 14-15. Individuals from Reformation Lutheran Church will be participating in the service with testimonials on the topic. This is sure to be a very meaningful and spiritual experience for LBGTQIA+ individuals and their allies in the Columbia area. \nRecognizing that if we do not acknowledge the sins of the harm done to our LBGTQIA+ siblings in Christ in both our past and present\, individually and systemically\, we cannot hope to understand and heal the wounds of hateful comments and actions. The service will include elements of confession and repentance\, and the repudiation of the times when churches have been silent in the face of the harm caused by the church to LBGTQIA+ persons. \nRecently\, as a response to issues of safety and welcome raised by members of the LGBTQAI+ community through dialogues at WSUMC\, the church has created a new location for a Sunday morning fellowship – the S.A.F.E. Space. Open from 9:45 to 10:45 am and hosted by LGBTQAI+ members of WSUMC\, and other allies\, the SAFE Space is located just inside of the Bull Street entrance of the church. There will be access to view the 11:00 am service from the room if anyone is interested. All are truly welcome here.
