Greetings from Creating Change |

 Hello from Dallas, Texas, the buckle of the Bible belt. I am here meeting with local Presbyterian pastors and with Betsy Winters. Grace Presbytery was one of the 34 presbyteries with a transformative vote for Amendment 08-B on Ordination last year. I am also joining over 2,000 activists for Creating Change, the National Conference on LGBT Equality. Creating Change is produced by NGLTF, the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force.
Sue Hyde, Creating Change director, said, "Let's organize, agitate, skill build, network, learn and teach to create a transformed society that embraces full self-determination and justice. There is no time to wait or waste. Come to the National Conference on LGBT Equality: Creating Change and work to achieve this vision in communities all over the country."
I will participate in the American Prayer Hour service here on February 4. The American Prayer Hour is a multi-city alternative to the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, DC whose leaders have ties to the anti-gay bill in Uganda. I am representing More Light Presbyterians at IWR, the Institute for Welcoming Resources, events and also NRLR, the National Religious Leadership Roundtable. It is exciting and heartening to me to see progressive and pro-LGBT faith voices front and center here in Dallas and around the country.
