Sister Joan Chittister famously said, "We are each called to go through life reclaiming the planet an inch at a time until the Garden of Eden grows green again." Reflecting on that journey -- a blog at a time -- is the focus of this site.

"Exploring a New Path to Full Inclusion" -- movingforwardtexas.org
Yep. That would be the Episcopal Diocese of Texas.
It's enough to make you want to head to Houston! A great conference with a great line-up of fabulous speakers -- including Madame President herself: Dr. Bonnie "Hail to the Chief" Anderson.
From the conference website:
A group of Texas Episcopalians who favor the full inclusion of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered (LGBT) people in the life and ministry of The Episcopal Church conceived and planned this conference to celebrate the diversity of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas and to expand the conversation in Texas about full inclusion. For more information on the conference, click here.
From the article in today's Episcopal Life Online:
"This conference will be an opportunity to affirm the ministry and contribution of all members of the Diocese of Texas as well as hear a perspective from the larger church," the Very Rev. Joe Reynolds, dean of Christ Church Cathedral, said. To check out the ENS article, click here.
Finally, to email Dean Reynolds and thank him for his prophetic leadership, click here and let him know what a beacon of hope and light this important gathering is to the whole church. And how much we will all be keeping him and this groundbreaking weekend in our prayers.
Moving Forward Texas, INDEED!!
