hi good people of 6th Church in Pittsburgh! This is your neighbor at 3rd Church in Rochester! I do hope we might renew friendships at the God's Whole Family conference at 2nd Church in Nashville this coming Labor Day weekend. Thanks for all you do to make this world a better place for ALL God's family, including our LGBT sons, daughters, parents, neighbors, colleagues and friends.
