Reconciling Ministry
You are not alone! We are a justice-seeking, Spirit-filled community seeking to end to discriminatory practices against lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer persons both within and outside of our denomination. As supporters of LGBTQ+ individuals and families, we are committed to providing a welcoming and safe space of worship and fellowship for our LGBTQ+ friends at Cranford UMC and continue to learn how to give and receive the gift of God’s radical hospitality and love to all.
Are you looking for a welcoming and safe community for LGBTQ+ Christians? Do you need any pastoral care, educational and theological resources or a consultation on baptism? We invite you to contact Rev. Dr. HyunHui Kim.
Journey of Hope
We honor the humanity, racial identity, uniqueness and sacred worth of everyone as we live out our baptismal vow as follows:
"We renounce the spiritual forces of wickedness, reject the evil powers of this world, and repent of our sin. We accept the freedom and power God gives us to resist evil, injustice, and oppression in whatever forms they present themselves. We confess Jesus Christ as our Savior, put our whole trust in his grace, and promise to serve him as our Lord, in union with Church which Christ has opened to people of all ages, nations, an races."
