This is what the Church is:
All are Unconditionally Welcome
We extend a special welcome to those who are single, married, divorced, gay, trans or just not sure, filthy rich, dirt poor, who speak very eloquently, or who don’t speak English at all. And a special welcome to those who are crying new-borns, skinny as a rail or could afford to lose a few pounds. We don’t care if you’re more churchy than the Pope, or haven’t been in church since little Joey’s Christening.
We welcome you if you are over 60 but not grown up yet, or a teenager who is growing up too fast. We welcome soccer mums, rugby dads, starving artists, tree-huggers, latte-sippers, vegetarians, junk-food eaters. We welcome those who are in recovery or still addicted. We welcome you if you’re having problems, or you’re down in the dumps or if you don’t like “organised religion”; there’s plenty of us have been there too!
If you blew all your offering money at the dog-track, you’re welcome here. We offer special welcome to those who think the earth is flat, who work too hard, who don’t work, can’t spell, or those who’ve come because Grandma is in town and she wanted to go to church.
We welcome those who are inked, pierced, both or none. We welcome those who need a prayer right now, had religion shoved down your throat as a kid, or haven’t a clue what any of it is about; as well as anyone who simply got lost in traffic and ended up here by mistake. We welcome tourists, seekers and doubters, bleeding hearts … and you!
We welcome you because if you’re good enough for God (and you are!), then you are good enough for us!
You are welcome to be part of God's family!
