The General Synod (annual meeting) of the Reformed Church in America starts in a few hours in Tucson, Arizona. I’m a Delegate. I’ll likely post some pictures and any news worth hearing.

I'm very thankful for the liturgy for journeys of gender affirmation and transition that were approved at the #Anglican #GeneralSynod in #Calgary last week.
As a cis hetero male and clergy person, I'm thankful for the group of gender diverse clergy and laity who offered these prayers and theological insights so that I might better pray with them. An incredible work and a beautiful gift.
