I believe that Episcopalian Christians with God's help will fulfill the vows of our Baptismal Covenant to "strive for justice and peace among all people, and respect the dignity of every human person" by working together to achieve the full inclusion and equality for all marginalized persons including LGBTQ people in the Church and society. The Episcopal Church's three legged stool of Scripture, Tradition and Reason will be part of each blog meditation to inspire our movement.

For All the Children....Vote No
Today is one of those days when I must share a work of God's grace that is so powerful, that I cannot keep it to myself.
As many of you may know, Minnesota is facing a vote on limiting the freedom to marry to straight couples, effectively banning marriage equality for LGBT people. The effort to push this amendment is getting a lot of strength from the local Catholic Archbishop.
A group of Catholic choral members with other faith allies, came together to record this beautiful song: For All the Children...Vote No. The message is powerful, the voices magnificent and the movement of the Holy Spirit very real.
Please consider watching this powerful video and sharing it. Help it to go viral. The message of this video and those who sing, should be the message of all Christians for all the marginalized, by virtue of our Baptism.
In the words of the music: May God's welcome, be our song.
