During the GIFT hours on February 2nd and 9th, the Rainbow Conversation Team will present a two-part series focusing on the most misunderstood, at-risk, and controversial sector of the LGBTQ+ community – those who are Transgender. Through informative and powerful videos followed by discussion, we hope to shed more light on what it means to be transgender and how we, as a church, can be more open and affirming.  We encourage you to join us for this important conversation. We dedicate this series to all the colorful birds.

Join us at the GIFT hour after worship on Sunday, February 16th to watch this compelling video called “Loving All God’s Creation” featuring Dr. Katharine Hayhoe.

How do you talk to someone who doesn’t believe in climate change? Not by rehashing the same data and facts we’ve been discussing for years, says climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe. In this inspiring, pragmatic talk, Hayhoe shows how the key to having a real discussion is to connect over shared values like family, community and religion—and to prompt people to realize that they already care about a changing climate. “We can’t give in to despair,” she says. “We have to go out and look for the hope we need to inspire us to act —and that hope begins with a conversation, today.”
