Do you have questions about the highs and lows of serving in a Reconciling in Christ (RIC) congregation? Learn more with local Twin Cities pastors and Luther alums Chris Bingea, Matt Johnson, Hierald Osorto, and Kelli Weiss as they answer questions about the RIC journey and what it has meant for their congregations and for them as leaders. The event is on Friday, April 12 at 7:00 p.m. CT, in-person in Gullixson 102 and online via Zoom (register here). Light refreshments will be served. This event is sponsored by the RIC Advocacy Committee and the Office of Inclusion and Belonging. Questions? Reach out to Ashley Teter (ateter001@luthersem.edu).
Since 1983, the Reconciling in Christ program has been a public way for faith communities to see, name, celebrate, and advocate for people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions in the Lutheran church. Though this event may be of particular interest to students in the ELCA, everyone in the Luther Seminary community is welcome.
