Why I Do What I Do, Episode #3

I am still fighting with myself for not speaking out more to the whole congregation about an event that happened nearly two years ago. I cried through the service as we recognized our graduating seniors. We heard all the accolades about the youth and how much the church, our church, loved them. Unfortunately, I knew this not to be true. The youth also knew this. For in the group was a gay young man and a trans youth. They do not attend church and one even went through confirmation, but refused to join the church. The overall UMC and many members thought they were sick and chose to live their lives in sin. Wonder why they do not want to be a part of the church or even attend.
