Covenant Conversation: Indiana - "A Deeper Welcome, A Wider Table"

Covenant Conversation: Indiana
"A Deeper Welcome, A Wider Table"
Over the past two decades, our congregations and communities have become more affirming of people and more intentional in our efforts to welcome all God’s people. Even so—even as we work for justice and equity--we frequently struggle to live into our frequent declaration that “All are welcome,” and many LGBTQIA+ don’t feel safe or at home in our churches, our state, or our nation.

At Covenant Conversation: Indiana, we’ll bring together congregations so we can help one another take next steps in extending the church’s inclusion of LGBTQIA+ people, whatever those steps may need to be. We’ll hear and honor the experience of queer folks in the church and share practical examples of ministry that makes a difference. In worship, learning, fellowship and conversation, we’ll build a stronger church by widening our table and deepening our welcome of all.

On Saturday, September 27, Presbyterians across Indiana will gather at Northminster Presbyterian Church (1660 Kessler Blvd. E Drive, Indianapolis, IN 46220) for Covenant Conversation: Indiana from 10 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. (EDT). Registration and refreshments begin at 9:30 a.m.

The event is co-sponsored by the Covenant Network of Presbyterians, Northminster Presbyterian Church, and the Presbyteries of Ohio Valley, Wabash Valley and Whitewater Valley.
