Extractions: From The Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Churches Jesse Jackson, Troy Perry Hold LA Hate Crimes Rally National Campaign for Passage of Federal Hate Crimes Laws Unveiled "200,000 By 2000" Is Campaign Theme LOS ANGELES When veteran human rights activists Jesse Jackson and Troy Perry held a joint rally and press conference in Los Angeles, it turned into more than a public statement against hate crimes. It launched a national movement. During Thursday's standing-room only rally in West Hollywood, the Rev. Troy Perry, Founder and Moderator of the Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Churches, announced the formation of a national campaign, "200,000 by 2000." "The shock and pain we have felt around Matthew Shepard's murder must be translated beyond words into action," said Perry, a delegate to President Clinton's White House Conference on Hate Crimes. "The "200,000 by 2000 Campaign" is a positive step in this direction. The campaign is gathering signatures and endorsements of 200,000 American religious leaders calling for full enactment of federal hate crimes legislation by the Year 2000." Perry, who attended funeral services for Matt Shepard and who led the Community Memorial Service in Wyoming, knows something about hate crimes.

http://www.jesusmcc.org/about_us/doctrine.html

Extractions: Christianity is the revelation of God in Jesus Christ and is the religion set forth in the Scriptures. Jesus Christ is foretold in the Old Testament, presented in the New Testament, and proclaimed by the Christian Church in every age and in every land. Founded in the interest of offering a church home to all who confess and believe, the Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Churches moves in the mainstream of Christianity. Our faith is based upon the principles outlined in the historic creeds: Apostles and Nicene We believe: In one triune God, omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient, of one substance and of three persons: God, our Parent-Creator; Jesus Christ, the only begotten son of God, God in flesh, human; and the Holy Spirit, God as our Sustainer. That Jesus...the Christ...historically recorded as living some 2,000 years before this writing, is God incarnate, of human birth, fully God and fully human, and that by being one with God, Jesus has demonstrated once and forever that all people are likewise Children of God, being spiritually made in God's image.

Extractions: Compiled by GayToday Wichita Falls, Texas A Texas court has violated church/state separation by deciding that a child of a marriage ending in divorce could attend only a "mainline" church with her mother, six religious groups said today. The American Jewish Congress, the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the USA, the American Friends Service Committee and the Universal Fellowship of the Metropolitan Community Church called on the Texas Court of Appeals to reverse that decision. In an amicus brief filed in the child custody case of "In the Interest of WKG, a Minor Child," on appeal from the 78th District Court of Wichita County, Texas, the religious organizations said that "a loosely worded divorce agreement has led to an improper judicial intrusion into the sacred domain of religious belief," thus requiring reversal. A Christian mother and Jewish father divorced, with each promising as part of their divorce to provide religious training to their daughter. The mother took her daughter to the Metropolitan Community Church at Wichita Falls, a Protestant church whose minister focuses on gay and lesbian Christians.

Extractions: "Preparing for Bold Growth into a New Millennium," says Rev. Troy Perry Compiled by Badpuppy's GayToday The Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Churches (UFMCC), the world's largest gay and lesbian spirituality organization, has announced adoption of a new mission and vision statement. The new statement was adopted during UFMCC's recent General Conference XVIII in Sydney, Australia. The UFMCC mission statement now reads: "The Universal Fellowship of Metropolitan Community Churches is a Christian Church founded in and reaching beyond the Gay and Lesbian communities. We embody and proclaim Christian salvation and liberation, Christian inclusivity and community, and Christian social action and justice. We serve among those seeking and celebrating the integration of their spirituality and sexuality." "With the adoption of this new mission statement, UFMCC became the first Christian denomination in history to proclaim the "integration of spirituality and sexuality" as part of its intrinsic mission," said the Reverend Troy D. Perry, moderator of the denomination. The new vision statement enacted in Australia reads: "The vision of the UFMCC is to embody the presence of the Divine in the world, as revealed through Jesus Christ; to challenge the conscience of the universal Christian Church; and to celebrate the inherent worth and dignity of each person. As we move toward this vision, by 2003, the UFMCC will be comprised of at least 70,000 members and adherents who are all called and equipped to minister with excellence. This diverse global body will be widely recognized as a prophetic light and driving force for an inclusive Christian spirituality which celebrates the integration of spirituality and human sexuality. Through our strengthened local churches, we will meet the justice and faith needs of people in increasing numbers of countries and cultures."
