As we come together to celebrate how God’s faithfulness continues in these ministries of affirmation and love, our time will center around forming connections and finding support. Sometimes, finding support means becoming that support first, something our workshop presenters will equip attendees to do across the generations of LGBTQIA+ children of God. In the afternoon of Friday, October 24th, our panel discussion brings together voices from the Reformed Church in America and the Christian Reformed Church to answer the question “Where does our response to God’s faithfulness take us?”
