SANCTUARY

Every third Thursday of the month, 6:30pm
Led by Rev. Sara Thompson Tweedy
Music led by Rev. Eric Jennings
Sanctuary is a spiritual gathering devoted to and expressly for the LGBTQ community and their supporters. Because this community struggles for inclusion, we have created a safe space for all persons to worship, question, and trust their own inner wisdom. In a contemplative atmosphere that draws on the teachings of many spiritual traditions, we learn to trust what we believe and give our innermost thoughts and feelings an opportunity to rise from within us. - Join us for an hour of reflection, worship, and fellowship where we can all be who God created us to be.

Join us after the service (7:30pm) for movie night at the LOFT, Westchester’s LGBT community center, housed right at Memorial. 
 
This flyer produced by Methodists in New Directions (MIND). MIND is a conference-wide organization of United Methodists working to end our denomination’s doctrinal prejudice and institutional discrimination against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people and committed to living more fully into God’s radical Welcome right now and right here.
