That we would be His
disciples
not judging our neighbors;
offering love, kindness
in the name of our Lord
even to the stranger
That we would be humble
gracious to our sister, our
brothers
to all those we meet;
that our name would be
written
in God’s book of love
Messengers ever
light, salt in the world;
witnesses here
God’s holy people
here on this earth
Going in His name
the One who was sent;
going as the Spirit sends us
commissioned and anointed
to the ends of the earth

“my 'heart' sinks with your
continued association with the United Methodist church. God's Word clearly says
that the Lord’s command is no females are allowed to be leaders. 1 Cor.
14:33-38; 1 Tim 2:12-3:12. Violating God's Word is not a recommended path to
follow.”
