GAY PEOPLE'S CHRONICLE

Actress/Singer/Songwriter

communitygroups Bishop to discuss gays and IDINA MENZEL

the Lutheran church

by Rev. Don King

ClevelandThe Evangelical Lutheran Church of America has been in the midst of a study process for the last several years, in anticipation of the release of a Social Statement on Human Sexuality, to be adopted by the Churchwide Assembly of 2009.

Hope Lutheran Church

This document is expected to address issues around gay marriage, the place of the LGBT community in the life of the church, and the sexuality of single people in general. The church will likely make recommendations on the ordination of non-celibate gays and lesbians as a result of the stance the document takes.

Bishop Elizabeth Eaton of the ELCA Northeastern Ohio Synod will address the Lutherans Concerned Cleveland chapter on Friday, September 26, at 6:30 p.m.

On the day Eaton was elected bishop, she

was asked her stance on gay and lesbian ordination. Her response proved pivotal and foretelling.

"I will uphold the teachings of the church," she said. "But things can change. and I know that for my children and their generation, this will be a non-issue."

On September 26 she is expected to discuss her feelings on where the church is going, the sense of the House of Bishops in the ELCA, and where she sees hope for the LGBT community. Meetings of Lutherans Concerned-Cleveland are free and open to the public. This meeting begins with a light supper and will conclude with the bishop leading those present in worship with Holy Communion.

Lutherans Concerned-Cleveland meets at Hope Lutheran Church, 2222 N. Taylor Road (at Northvale) in Cleveland Heights. For information call Pastor Don King or Denise Leslie at 216-371-5252. ✓

Rev. Don King is the pastor of Hope

Lutheran Church.
