Open and Affirming: the Power of Covenant

This webinar is for UCC congregations taking their first steps toward an Open and Affirming covenant and for existing ONA churches looking for new ways to live into their ONA commitment. We'll focus on "covenant" as the basic value of our movement, and the reason we've become the largest and fastest-growing LGBTQ-affirming church movement in the world. We'll share best practices we've learned from growing ONA churches--including intersectional advocacy--and ways a church can design an ONA conversation that builds consensus and strengthens relationships. This webinar is part of a special series of Thursdays for the Soul webinars focused on twelve Just World Covenant programs in the United Church of Christ. On the third Thursday of each month, one of these programs will be featured.

We faithfully focus on care and education for the people of God and create opportunities to digitally worship together as the whole of the United Church of Christ. From prayer, music, and psalms, to interviews of key leaders and how-to’s in congregational life, this series stays current to the relevant topics of the time and offers opportunities for connection in the wider church and in your community. Together, we can bring our church--and the world--toward the world God imagines for all of us.
