First Trinity is a Reconciling in Christ Congregation!
Affirming we are all one in Christ Jesus in the midst of our diversity (Galatians 3:28) and recognizing that society and the church at large often exclude and hurt LGBTQIA+ individuals, we affirm the following: that people of all sexual orientations and gender identities share the worth that comes from being unique individuals created by God; that people of all sexual orientations and gender identities are welcome within the membership of this congregation upon making a common, public affirmation of faith; and that as members of this congregation, people of all sexual orientations and gender identities are expected and encouraged to share in the sacramental and general life of this congregation.
