Ten Stories
Join a diverse group of clergy and lay leaders of CBFNC congregations of all kinds as they share about the unique, faithful, and hopeful processes their churches experienced to become welcoming, affirming, and celebrating to the LGBTQ+ community. Attendees will hear a variety of stories from churches who have long been inclusive, ones who have more recently made this public confession, and ones who are currently having the inclusion conversation, all the while learning what might apply to their context from the many nuances of a conversation like this one. After a time of panel discussion and presentation, the workshop will conclude with Q&A from attendees.
