Union Church is overjoyed that the Supreme Court has recognized the equality of same-sex couples’ marriages to opposite-sex couples’ marriages. The overall arc of Jesus’ teachings is that love is at the core of all our relationships, and recognizing that love does not have gender boundaries, we extend a hand of welcome to people of all sexual orientations.
Many people wonder how we can come to such a celebratory stance with our Christian faith. In fact, it COMES from our Christian faith. Rev. Kent and Rev. Rachel have prepared a page of FAQs to help explain our stance. CLICK HERE to read it, and share with friends who might also be wondering.
To our lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer-identified friends: we believe all marriages covenanted in a church are to be supported and sustained by a community of faith. We would be happy to be that community of faith for you.
Rev. Kent and Rev. Rachel stand at the ready to walk with same-sex couples into the covenant of marriage. For more information on our policies and procedures, please visit our Weddings page. Our clergy are also available to perform wedding ceremonies at other venues in the area. Please contact one of our ministers directly for off-site services.
Glory to God! Love wins!
