This stole belonged to a woman Elder in the Illinois Great Rivers Conference of the United Methodist Church. A fierce and vocal advocate of the ministry of LGBT persons, she was due to be brought up on charges for the strength of her advocacy when she was disabled by Alzheimer’s disease.

It has been signed by students, faculty, and staff in support of all LGBT members of the Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary community, past and present.
