Wide is God’s welcome, and you are welcome here:
If you are young or old, you are welcome
If you have brown skin, black skin, white skin, yellow skin or red skin, you are welcome
If you are married or single, you are welcome
If you are gay or straight, you are welcome
If you cannot hear or see, you are welcome
If you are sick or well, you are welcome
If you are a man or a woman, you are welcome
If you are happy or sad, you are welcome
If you are rich or poor, powerful or weak, you are welcome
If you believe in God some of the time or none of the time or all of the time, you are welcome
You are welcome here.
Come with your gifts, your pain, your hope, your fears
Come with the traditions that have helped you and hurt you
Come with your experiences that have made you and broken you
Come and listen for the Sacred Spirit that calls you to love your neighbor wholeheartedly, to seek justice,
create peace and practice compassion
You are welcome here.
