Inman UMC
Members of Inman UMC in Atlanta, Ga., celebrate their vote to join Reconciling Ministries Network in support of LGBTQ inclusion in The United Methodist Church (Facebook photo).
Aside from vigorous reactions to a recent essay from the Wesleyan Covenant Association (see Related at the end of this article), public resistance actions to the Traditional Plan are slowing a bit, but have not stopped.
For example, Inman Park UMC in Atlanta, Ga., posted on its Facebook page:
“Excited to share that today IPUMC voted unanimously (53-0) to join the Reconciling Ministry Network and to proudly proclaim that we are community of Christ followers that welcomes ALL and strives to share Christ's inclusive love.”
