Speaking of Angels and Sparrows, a note from a recent year-end email from that partner. "Together, we provided 247,456 meals to more than 1,000 households and equipped 155 individuals with 12,710 hours of education, tutoring, mentoring, and college and career readiness last year." You were part of that DCPC. Thank you for your support of our mission partners.

Presbyterian LGBTQIA+ History The Rev. David Sindt grew up in the Twin Cities and came out as an openly gay pastor in the early 1970s. He was a groundbreaking figure in the struggle for full inclusion of LGBTQIA+ Presbyterians. During the 1974 United Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) General Assembly in Louisville, Sindt held up a sign reading, “Is Anyone Else Out There Gay?” to let others know they were not alone.
