Who is Welcome?

Who is Welcome?

In my experience, not all churches are very welcoming. Am I welcome in the ELCA?

Welcome is what our church strives for. We recognize that there are groups and communities of people who have been hurt by experiences with church. They have been made to feel that they cannot be their God-given selves in church settings. The ELCA is continually working toward reconciliation and to share our fundamental belief that God’s love and grace are limitless and for everyone.

What is sin? Am I judged for my sins?
What would cause someone to be not good enough for God or Jesus?
How is the ELCA committed to welcoming and including everyone?
