Open Hearts Reconciling Community : don't forget : "Bully" showing in GI! GC 2012 is over! Lighten the Burden IV

Open Hearts Folks :  Don't forget to see the movie BULLY  in G Island, NE this weekend!

Support the GRAND THEATER for showing this movie by going and support the many efforts and energy to eliminate bullying!

General conference 2012 ended last night May 5 at 11 PM in Tampa Florida at the Convention Center  :   you can read reports online at www.RMNetwork.org :

Church Within a Church :  www.cwac.us  as well as MFSA online and www.umc.org

Also our conference has updates on GC 2012 with UM Connect updates from the past 2 weeks :  www.umcneb.org

It was a very painful two weeks for our GLBTQA brothers and sisters, allies, families and friends!   The LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR challenge of RMN (Reconciling Ministries Network) remains clear and as a sign of HOPE for many!

Thanks to all persons who paid their ways to attend as part of the COMMON WITNESS for two weeks in the tabernacle!   We are deeply appreciative for this witness through meals, newspapers, speakers, pins, stoles, protests for justice for a fully inclusive UMC and more!

We thank all persons who have contributed to the RMN offerings to support the COMMON WITNESS in Tampa the last two weeks and as the inclusive ministries continue!

Two more checks were in the mail upon returning today :  for our Spring Email offering for Nebraska Statewide Reconciling Network :  bringing us to $240 :  with our goal being $300 to $500 for our annual commitment to RMN as an official Reconciling Community (one of four in NE) :   a list will be coming in May of loving and caring donors for the spring Email offering!

More info will be coming in May on our gathering at Annual Conference in June for lunch June 8, our Reconciling table, HIV AIDS ministries offerings and table etc.

Let's rejoice : Five people from NE and others from KS and around the globe attended :  Lighten the Burden IV Conference on HIV AIDS and UM Global AIDS fund in Tampa April 23 and others from NE and KS were part of the Common Witness!   Several of our voting delegates in NE are Reconciling United Methodists!   THANK YOU!

General Conference 2016 is in Portland Oregon if you are interested!

Thanks Everyone for prayers as the justice work continues!

SEE YOU at the movies this weekend to see the movie Bully in G Island!  (see info below from hastings PFLAG)   peace :  maureen vetter and mena sprague

NOTE:  I purchased a copy of the documentary :  "Incompatible with Christian Teaching" for our Rainbow crate :  at the RMN Tabernacle in Tampa!   If you have movies to return or books :  we will see about a summer coffee get together or lunch in G I area before fall again!   Our FABRIC PRAYERS for GC 2012 were blowing in the wind :  will send pics!
