Episcopalians believe the Holy Scriptures to be the Word of God and to contain all things necessary for salvation. We believe God inspired human authors and continues to speak to us through the Bible. Episcopalians affirm that salvation is the end of our separation from God and the beginning of a new relationship with God and one another. The Apostles' and Nicene Creeds are basic statements of our beliefs in God.” The Episcopal Church has more than 2.4 million members in 7,679 congregations in 110 dioceses situated in 16 countries. It is a member of the world-wide Anglican Communion, with 77 million members in 166 countries.

Evangelical Lutheran Church of America | A merger of three Lutheran churches formed the ELCA in 1988. They were The American Lutheran Church, the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches and the Lutheran Church in America. Now 25 years later, the ELCA is a church that shares a living, daring confidence in God’s grace. As members of the ELCA, we believe that we are freed in Christ to serve and love our neighbor. With our hands, we do God’s work of restoring and reconciling communities in Jesus Christ’s name throughout the world. We trace our roots back through the mid-17th century, when early Lutherans came to America from Europe, settling in the Virgin Islands and the area that is now known as New York. Even before that, Martin Luther sought reform for the church in the 16th century, laying the framework for our beliefs.

The goal of UC|CU's LGBTQ GUIDE to AFFIRMING FAITH
CENTERS is to offer a world where nobody is forced to choose

Thanks in part to this work, more and more faith communities
aren’t simply engaging in dialogue around LGBT equality, they’re
leading the conversation. They do this work not in spite of their
religious beliefs but because of them.

Unity Coalition|Coalición Unida Stands in Solidarity and Grief with our LGBT & Latino|Hispanic communities following Orlando LGBT Nightclub Shooting
Miami, Florida - June 12, 2016… In response to last evening’s shooting which killed an estimated 50 people at Orlando, Florida’s Pulse Nightclub, a popular LGBT
nightspot and weekly Latin night party, Unity Coalition|Coalición Unida sends the most heartfelt support, thoughts and prayers to the many families affected by this
senseless act of violence. As the details are sorted out and the facts emerge in the next hours, days & weeks, we must remain United, Strong and Resilient. Whether last
night’s victims were targeted because they were LGBT, because they were American, Latino or because they were simply all in one common space, the results of this
horrible attack are equally devastating and without explanation or justification. Our hearts are with the victims, their families and Orlando’s LGBT community. This a
terrible tragedy for LGBT people in Orlando and nationwide, especially as our community celebrates LGBT Pride Month.
If you are trying to identify a family member, here is the city of Orlando’s crisis hotline: 407-246-4357. www.cityoforlando.net/blog/victims
Medical officials say there is a need for blood donations to help the shooting victims. O+, AB, and O- are especially needed - make a donation at any Red Bus.

más sentido, pensamientos y oraciones a la multitud de familias afectadas por este acto de violencia sin sentido. A medida
que los datos se ordenan y los hechos emergen en las horas siguientes, días y semanas, debemos permanecer unidos,

latinos o simplemente porque estaban todos en un espacio común, los resultados de este horrible ataque son igualmente
devastador y sin explicación o justificación Nuestros corazones están con las víctimas, sus familias y la comunidad LGBT
de Orlando. Esta es una tragedia terrible para las personas LGBT en Orlando y en todo el país, especialmente en lo que
