We will have our usual schedule this Sunday, with worship at 9am and 10:45. However, we will not have our fellowship time between services, and no food or beverages will be available. The new member class that was scheduled for Sunday will be postponed.
How does a young #gay boy growing up in #conservative churches in rural #Kansas manage to hang on to his #faith in the face of #discrimination and #exclusion? Gain some #insight, #perspective, and #inspiration from Dr. Gerald Gurss’ story. wblumc.org/our-blog/staring-… @TCGMC
New on the Blog:
Julie, writing about our sermon series on "Elephants in the Room," asks, "Perhaps a genesis to budging the elephants out is becoming stronger lovers of humankind?" wblumc.org/our-blog/elephant…
Our next guest speaker will be Dr. Gerald Gurss, director of the WBLUMC Chancel Choir. From small town Kansas Baptist churches to directing the @TCGMC , Gerald is a case study of someone who managed to keep his faith amid discrimination & exclusion from conservative Christianity.

Wow! @KerriMPR and @MPRnews are reading our minds! Listening to today’s show w @peggyorenstein. Check out audio from our (logical, reasoned, research-based!) sermon on pornography: wblumc.org/ministries/sermon…
Often people seem to avoid talking about the big things that cast shadows over our lives, consume our attention, threaten us, or embarrass us. It’s time to talk about the Elephants in the Room: porn, debt, nationalism, addiction, death, violence. Starts Jan 5.

Yep, we're talking about it at 9.
