Aspiring to be an Inclusive Christian Community
Sometimes, when people say 'All are welcome', they mean 'all are welcome, as long as people can fit in to the established rules' - but Norwood Church and 'Creating Space for God' aspire to be a truly inclusive community. It is not that we do not care about your race, gender, sexual oriantation, disability; on the contrary, we care deeply about the diversity of human beings and wish to celebrate God's gift in all humanity. That includes gender (both sex and gender identity), racial/ethnic origin, national identity, disability/impairment, sexual orientation, age and class. Even as a Christian community we are open to dialogue with people of all faiths and none.
We don't always get this right - after all we are human and make mistakes - but we try to be open to ALL, and open to God.
