Ally Training

This is a training session for allies to increase their support of our trans and nonbinary community members. We'll reflect on our personal gender expression, and discuss topics such as the history of gender in the West, gender roles, identity and expression, and the evolution of new language to describe gender identity. Find out what a gender pronoun is, how to receive someone coming out to you, and how to incorporate new gender vocabulary and show your support!

Join us for worship this Sunday! Our sermon text is Mark’s account of Jesus in the storm with the disciples and Pastor Teresa will be preaching. We will also welcome Rev. David McMinn who is the Director of the Texas Wesley campus ministry. Rev. McMinn worships with us periodically and has collaborated with our own Megan Otto on various campus ministry events. He will share with us in worship about the ministries at Texas Wesley. We continue our “Moment in Methodism” lesson and this week’s emphasis is on the Wesleyan understanding of Grace. We continue to collect hymn requests as we look to our July 7th hymn sing, be prepared in worship to write down your favorites on the registration pad!

“Through thunder

and lightning

the swell of waves

and slash of rain

the dark of doubt

and gales of grief

I believe, that You

walking on water

bring peace.”
