The Tri-Region Affirm Network has created a resource to help!
With gratitude for the work of Network member, Anne Moore, the tri-region Affirming Network is pleased to provide a resource to communities of faith that are discerning and/or have entered into the Affirming Ministries process.
Meant to augment the tools made available through Affirm United/S’Affirmer Ensemble, this resource is full of wisdom gleaned by United Church ministries across the country that are living into the call to be Public Intentional and Explicit about the ways communities of faith live the welcome as Affirming Ministries.
