   Comments: Jesus said to love your neighbor as yourself. This means that if you think you believe you are able to provide the word, your neighbor(LGBT) should be also.

    Comments: Jesus particularly made a point of including those whom society likes to exclude. How can we do less. When we become the allies of LGBTQ sisters and brothers, we are truly the allies of Jesus.

    Name: Ruben Castilla Herrera on Apr 20, 2011

    Comments: I am Latino, a person of faith, a former migrant farm-worker, a person of color, a Untied States citizen, a father, a family person, an active community member, a community organizer, a fighter for "liberty and justice for all" and a longtime active member of the United Methodist Church. As I fight for the rights of people, I strongly feel that it is right that I sign this petition and unequivocally support the right to ordination of LGBTQ persons. "Liberty and justice for all", starts in the church...in my church; The United Methodist Church because all means all!

    Name: Rev. Da Vita D. McCallister on Apr 20, 2011

    Comments: I was ordained in the United Methodist Church and served proudly in the Detroit Annual Conference at the Historic Central United Methodist Church of Detroit. I surrendered my credentials and was accepted into full standing in the United Church of Christ because of the bigotry levied against Same-Gender Loving persons in the United Methodist Church. I pray for the restoration of this Church as a prophetic voice in the world. Blessings to each of you for taking this stand within a denomination that has silenced so many other voices.

    Comments: I am one of a few leaders in a Young Adult programs in South Texas (corpus christi, tx) that has a thriving UMC Young Adult program. This discrimination keeps us from legitimizing in our theology as a church the hope we have for our friends, families, and future members/clergy that are in love with Jesus and his Church. I pray that it will be removed so that ALL people can serve God in the way I do.
