Seeking Persons to Help with ONA Revitalization Project

Would you like to help out on an awesome queer project? Would you like to learn and help our Conference learn how to engage the concerns, theology, and everyday needs of our LGBTQ congregants, clergy, and neighbors? Contact Regan at  rev.regan.saoirse@gmail.com or 785-840-7526.

 A few months ago, Regan presented the Conference Ministers with an idea for a project to better fulfill the Conference's ONA values. As the conversation developed, they recognized that the ONA churches also could use some community and connection that help pastors and congregants engage their commitment more fully. It would be nice to have a small group of clergy and congregants participate! And the KO Conference is not alone. We have online resources from the UCC and the ONA Coalition. There is also an across-conference gathering online every month called Cross Pollination asking questions like:

  - ONA & Congregational Involvement: How do we inspire people in our congregations to allocate people power & resources towards this work?

 - ONA, now what: Starting points for becoming ONA or reigniting your ONA commitment

 - Pronouns 101

If you are interested in querying these questions about supporting our queer church family and neighbors, please email Regan Saoirse or text her at 785-840-7526.

Peace and hope be with you,
Rev. Chaplain Regan Saoirse, BS, MDiv
