Help ReconcilingWorks welcome the newest Reconciling in Christ (RIC) community: Capitol Hill Lutheran Church (Des Moines, IA).
Their welcome statement reads:
“CHLC is a welcoming community. Our diversity reflects God’s creation, and our shared unity is in Christ. Our history of welcoming refugees has extended to the work of anti-racism, uplifting the LGBTQIA+ community, and equity. We are an ELCA congregation rooted in the gospel message of Christ’s love and justice for all. We openly welcome and affirm YOU: your race, culture, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, as well as those of you who may have been excluded because of other human distinctions such as ability, age, addictions, mental health, imprisonment or economic status. We are committed to being the body of Christ because we believe: it takes a village.“
