RMN-Indiana

Yes, it does! 🌈🌈🌈 Thanks General Commission on the Status and Role of Women!

Read the latest writing from our General Secretary, Rev. Stephanie York Arnold:

"I tell you this story because that kind of belonging and empowerment is my dream for what GCSRW helps the Church live into. I believe this has always been our identity, but we’ve had seasons where we have leaned in deeply, and seasons we have treaded carefully. We are done treading carefully. Making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world must mean inclusion, love, acceptance, belonging, and empowerment for ALL, or it doesn’t mean anything at all. I want us to radically lean into our mandate: challenging our worldwide Church to the full and equitable inclusion of women at every level of leadership. Not just for women’s sake, but for all people, because the true liberation of one should always be the liberation of all."

United Women in Faith celebrates Pride Month by reminding us of the continued need to uplift members of the LGBTQ+ community in this moment of harmful rhetoric and public policy. We believe that God's love is never limited by who you are and who you love. We endeavor to protect the rights, liberties, health, and lives of all our siblings—regardless of their identity. Every person has sacred worth and dignity.

Visit https://www.umc.org/en/content/social-principles-the-political-community -orientations to learn more about how the United Methodist Social Principles promote justice and equality for all God's people.

Join us on Tuesday, June 9 at 6 PM ET as we welcome RMN's new Executive Director, Rev. Andi Woodworth, for a live virtual conversation about who she is, her vision for RMN, and what's next for the Reconciling movement.
