Stole Text

FRED KERWOOD
Elder and Deacon
First Presbyterian Church
Ewing, NJ

This stole is given in memory of those gay and lesbian Christians whose human spirits desire to openly love and know God as part of a faith community but cannot because of their own church's cultural prejudice and blatant discrimination.  I thank God for the First Presbyterian Church of Ewing, NJ which has supported me in being able to express my love, gratitude and service towards God as an openly gay Christian.  I pray that someday God's inclusive love will be reflected in the hearts of all people so that we can worship and love God, and each other, together.  Amen!
