Sad, sad, sad


As the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports here, First Covenant Church of Minneapolis was involuntarily removed from its denomination yesterday, and minister Dan Collison was stripped of his ordination. The reason? An openness to treating LGBT members like everyone else who comes in the doors. 

I suppose I am in a stage of grieving over this right now, and more complex thoughts and reflections will come later.

Already, though, I realize that First Cov will go on, and will thrive and grow as an unaffiliated church (the congregation owns the building, so that is possible).
