Excerpt From Emily’s Weekday Wondering January 11, 2017
“The final gift was to all of us – a set of beautifully hand-painted question boxes as a part of the Affirming process. These are now around the church (by the office, in the sanctuary, near the Hearth Room), along with paper and pencils. They are an opportunity to ask the questions you might have related to LGBTQ+ topics. As an Affirming Congregation, Leaside has committed to an ongoing journey of learning and welcome. Presteign-Woodbine has not yet taken part in an affirming process, so this is an opportunity for all of us to ask questions and learn new things safely. Any time, please write down a question, whatever it might be. Some examples we heard on Sunday include:
“What does LGBTQ+ stand for?”
“How old are people when they know they are gay?”
“What does the term ‘Asexual’ mean?”
“Why do pronouns matter?”
We will have the opportunity to read answers to these, and any of your questions in future bulletin”
