An important statement on this Trans Day of Remembrance:

“we raise our voices in solidarity to unequivocally proclaim the holiness of transgender, nonbinary, and intersex people, as well as the recognition of the entire spectrum of gender identity and expression.”

What’s up in the next couple weeks! How can we pray for and with you? And what is God calling you to, and how can we partner with you to make that happen?

Hi all! A lot going on in the next couple weeks. Also wanted to make sure you know that if you’re against gerrymandering, you can sign up for training for the next few Saturdays (including tomorrow!) to collect petition signatures. Hope to see you there! Also, how can we pray for and with you?

So about those biblical texts that Paul supposedly wrote that are against women in church and other leadership…it matters who’s speaking/writing, their perspective, and their context. The Bible and our interactions with it become so much more rich when we don’t need them to fit into little boxes!
September 22, 2025 at 9:21 PM
What we’re up to in the next couple weeks. In our daily Bible reading, 1st and 2nd Timothy give us an opportunity to think about letters written in Paul’s name but not by him and what that means for our faith. Also, how can we pray for and with you this week?

There’s been a lot going on recently, not only for TPA, but also in our broader community, state, and world at large. In the midst of it all, we know we can call on God and each other. How can we pray for and with you this week?

Sometimes we’ve heard about power as a bad thing (and we’ve seen many instances of power being used in the service of Empire). Richard Rohr talks about what happens when we see power as a gift from God:

We’re reading through more of the Pauline/deutero-Pauline letters next week and will be using our voices with many other people to let #MOLEG know that legislators should represent us, not cherry-pick us to represent their interests and ideologies! Join us at MCU on Tues and the MO Capitol on Wed!
September 6, 2025 at 3:37 PM
A lot going on next week! If you’re not okay with Gov Kehoe’s plan to illegally gerrymander Missouri, please come to the MCU meeting on Tues the 8th at 6:30 and come to the Capitol with us on Wed the 9th at noon to make your voice heard! And gather with us on Sat the 13th to be in community!

This week into next at TPA. There is some heavy stuff going on with gerrymandering. While Jesus was political (not partisan) and regularly stood up for humanity, especially the marginalized, which set him against the Roman Empire. We, too, must stand against Empire for the love of God and humanity!

What’s coming up! This Friday at 5:30pm: the redistricting that’s currently being called for is unconstitutional and authoritarian, and we must do what we can to prevent it from happening. And the next day, the 23rd at 12:30, join us at our gathering as we remind ourselves why we work for justice!
August 20, 2025 at 4:17 AM
The next couple weeks at TPA. About Ntosake: if you’re a StL-area woman community changemaker, this is a great group of women to connect with! Also, if you’re not happy with the direction the nation is going in, it’s imperative that you find a justice community - MCU is a great one to be a part of!

It’s St. Mary Magdalene’s feast day. In honor of that, here’s an amazing sermon about her by Diana Butler Bass. Mary the Tower!

What’s going on at TPA this week? Plenty of opportunities to do justice with MCU’s Prop 24/TDD campaign in terms of canvassing and phone banking - please let Rev. Rebecca know if you’re interested, then we have our regular gathering on Saturday, 12:30
July 20, 2025 at 8:07 PM
Wow, it’s been a week with the Disciples’ General Assembly, and we’re finishing out with TDD canvassing and phone banking (tonight, 5pm, at Beyond Housing!). I remember feeling bored in the summer. Also FYI: keep up with MCU on social media or check www.mcustlouis.org/mcu-actions-...
