Corey to come on July 13th-
Greetings friends,

It has been a very big week in the PCUSA-the ripples of decisions will be felt for months and years to come.  You will hear things on headlines and media.  You will probably hear people getting worked up as well.  I myself have come pretty close to getting worked up a number of times.

Basically if you favor ordaining practicing homosexuals, there are some very good reasons to celebrate.  If you are against it, you may feel sucker-punched.  The news is available from a few sources...

Lots happened at GA- but it is mostly overshadowed, as is so often the case, by these big changes, and recommended big changes.

Before you get worked up though, we have a great opportunity to hear what happened from someone who was there... Corey Schlosser-Hall was present for the whole GA, lead up the press conferences, and will be serving it up hot and honest at our church in 2 Sundays.

Sunday July 13th, 4pm at the FPC Sanctuary
Come and join us,  bring your friends, neighbors, and questions... (all local PCUSA churches have also been invited)

Blessings,

Doug B.
