COVENANT OF INCLUSION

Jesus said,
"You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
(Matt. 22:39)

This Covenant has been designed to give clergy, an opportunity to endorse "Open & Affirming Ministries." It offers those of us who have not been called to serve with -- and therefore are not identified with -- publically declared "Open & Affirming Ministries," a way to proclaim ourselves as Open & Affirming clergy. It enhances our expressed commitment to providing Open & Affirming pastoral care; to proclaim our calling within the wider church; to join in a supportive, nurturing community where we can learn from one another as we seek to fulfill our calling as ministers in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).
