Kolisha,
Well, thank you, thank you, thank you.
Our congregation, as well as others in the ELCA-Evangelical Lutheran Church in America--have been asked to study the issues of homosexuality vis a vis the issues of ordination and the bless-ings of same sex unions.
Most of the folks who are involved with the study in our congregation have family members who are gay and/or lesbian.
This article will serve us Lutherans a reminder from our learned Jewish brothers and sisters that scripture is indeed alive and flowing throughout our lives and history.
Thank you so much for posting this today.
Your brother in the struggle,
David

AND - thank YOU!!!! You have made my day!
I seem to recall that The Reform Movement actually has an official "Department" called "Gay & Transgendered Something-or-other..." I know that a woman Rabbi was just appointed to the post, but I just don't remember what it is called. The whole focus is toward assuring a warm welcome to EVERYONE in our community while also making sure that individual needs are met, if not surpassed.
Please let me know if you would like more information - it might be of help to you in your own struggles.
