Reconciling Works 2012 is an opportunity to explore and live out the work of reconciliation that we are called to do. Justice requires reconciliation, and reconciliation takes effort. Throughout our time together in assembly and convention, we will work on justice issues from the intersection of oppressions (racism, sexism, ablism, etc.) and through a lens of full participation of people of all sexual orientations and gender identities in the life of the Lutheran Church.
