East Lake United Methodist Church is a proud Reconciling Congregation within the Reconciling Ministries Network.
The Reconciling Ministries Network is committed to intersectional justice across and beyond the United Methodist connection, working for the full participation of all LGBTQ+ people throughout the life and leadership of the Church.
Reconciling Ministries are churches, communities, regional groups, Bible studies, small groups, campus ministries, colleges, and more – all committed to LGBTQ+ inclusion and justice. As a Reconciling Congregation, we have committed to:
- Outreach, affirmation, and intersectional ministry with and for LGBTQ+ persons locally
- Creating opportunities to engage in dialogue, build relationships, and advocate for changes to Church policies related to ordination equality, marriage equality, and the availability of funds that help make LGBTQ+ justice a reality
