The full list of Reconciling in Christ (RIC) congregations is shown below by default, sorted first by state or province and then by city or town. The RIC synod, college, seminary and organization lists are on a separate page.

We believe faith is a lifelong journey. Your support helps promote healing and positive self-esteem for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender people of faith. Your membership helps sustain ministries that the Lutheran church bodies are not yet willing to participate in. Our ministries include the Reconciling in Christ program to help communities of faith be more intentionally inclusive and Families Concerned, an outreach for family and friends of people of sexual and gender minorities.
