Most churches say that all are welcome – but you may have your doubts, and you may have questions about who we are.
Here are some questions and answers that reflect the core values of All Saints:
What if I'm LGBTQIA+, or someone I love is? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I'm single, married, separated, divorced, or remarried? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I have children, or am a single parent, a parent of children with special needs, adopted children, or if I'm not a parent at all? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I vote Democrat – or Republican – or Independent – or Other? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I have doubts, or am questioning my faith, or am not sure how I feel about religion? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I believe science should inform my spiritual beliefs? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I am of another denomination – or another faith? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I am an immigrant, or a refugee, or a U.S. citizen? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I live in a house, an apartment, assisted living, a motel, or I don't have a home? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I need a cane to walk, or a walker, or am unable to walk, or I can hike miles every day? Yes, you are welcome!
What if I love to dress up for church, or I'd rather just wear jeans, or I have only the clothes on my back? Yes, you are welcome!
Yes, you are welcome whether you are brand-new to this world, over 100 years old or any age in between. Bring your partner, spouse, children, and friends. Bring your questions and doubts, your wounds and your fears. Bring your hopes and dreams, your answers and joy. Bring your weakness, grief, and worry. Bring your strength and compassion, and your heart, mind, soul, and passion. Please, leave nothing of yourself behind – for we welcome you.
