This #Episcopalian begs to differ. Bigotry & #WhiteNationalism are *not* the future of Christianity, & #KKKristians do *not* get to define an ancient tradition
Stay in your lane, #WAPO. You're no longer credible as a news source - you sure don't have anything to say about the Church
Curious what this group thinks about ghosts. Do you believe in them?
A Blessed Ash Wednesday to all!
Made an Episcopalian community on Lemmy if anyone's interested in joining.

Unofficial, but still here. I'm going to mention it to my Priest tomorrow and see if maybe the diocese wants to have a tie to it.
Already got a few comically stupid comments on it, nice to know Lemmy is living up to its name as a Tried And True Reddit Alternativeβ’

I'm also waiting to meet a 'Biblical Literalist' who's actively working to end usury, pay workers the same day they work, & cancel all debt every 7 years

Got to Church this morning to find a car taking advantage of our Safe Parking Project resources π€£
All jokes aside we don't know who did this, I heard from our Junior Warden that they were DUI though I'm not entirely sure how they managed to get in there without damaging anything but their own car.
A for effort, I guess?
The car was gone by Coffee Hour, assumedly it got towed off.
Let it never be said that our Church is boring.
Excellent! This #Episcopalian #nonbinary friend is happy to know there's already MANY #Trans folks finding our pews safe and welcoming ππ½ββοΈβοΈ
