Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ of the Judson Association,
Thank you for your letter of July 20 in the spirit of loving Christian
dialogue following the pattern of Matthew 18. We would be so pleased to sit
with you face to face, to pray together, and discuss our mutuality in the
Body of Christ. We would be privileged to share our understanding of the
Scriptures you cited, why for us following Jesus leads us into the
Association of Welcoming and Affirming Baptists, and how this is consistent
with our American Baptist heritage.
We
would be pleased to invite you to our church for fellowship and conversation
at a time that fits both our schedules. Please feel free to e-mail me or
call me on the telephone.
Respectfully in Christ’s service,
The
Rev. Sandi John
