A Love Letter from Rev. Jacob Poindexter and Wichita United Church of Christ in Wichita, KS

Written By Russell Ware

Beloved of God,

Today, and all days, Wichita United Church of Christ celebrates, affirms, and honors our transgender, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming neighbors and siblings. We especially commit to the support of youth who are facing systematic and intentional harm through legislation and from within their families and communities.

You are welcome among us every day, and we commit to walking with you and to seeing you as you are - a beloved and sacred child of God. Your life brings us all yet more life together. Who you are matters to us. 

With all of the voices of hatred and ignorance coming from people of faith, especially Christians, we commit as pastors, church leaders, and members of Wichita United Church of Christ to the sustained work of love. We proclaim that your light and life is beloved, this day and every day.

Rev. Jacob Poindexter and Wichita United Church of Christ in Wichita, KS
