Our field organizer Michael Adee recently compiled this list of 10 ways that local More Light movement supporters can make a difference for LGBT equality, right where you are.

Ten Ways To Make a Difference in your Church or Presbytery

1. Pray for open hearts & minds to the Spirit of God at work in your church and presbytery beginning with your own.

2. Embrace all persons as children of God created in the image of God and of sacred worth including yourself.

3. Seek out and join companions who are committed to ending discrimination, offering sanctuary and creating equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender persons & their families.

4. Nurture a theology, ethic and practice of hospitality within your church family and presbytery.

5. Break the silence and challenge the conspiracy of false witness brought against LGBT persons in church & society.

6. Create safe, welcoming & affirming spaces for LGBT persons, parents & families to come out, to live with integrity and to tell the truth of their lives and faith stories.

7. Participate in your National More Light Movement through "More Light Sunday" in June, "Come Out for More Light" house parties in October and by sending representatives to MLP Conferences & Retreats.

8. Support National More Light Presbyterians' ministries of education, advocacy, grassroots organizing, and field outreach through membership drives, fundraising and mission giving.

9. Work for justice through the passage of ordination and marriage equality overtures within your church and in your presbytery in preparation for General Assembly 2008 in San Jose.

10. Celebrate your life and faith journey as a gift from God and be the change you seek to make in your church & world.

Together We are Building a Church for All God's People!
