Grace and Peace to All:

It is a pleasure to send you joyful greetings during this Pride Celebration.  While the Episcopal Church is not, as yet, of one mind on the subject of homosexuality, I know that God views all persons equally without regard to sexual orientation.

May God who has brought you in safety to this new day fill you with all joy and peace now and always.

Faithfully, in Christ,

+ James L. Jelinek
Bishop of Minnesota


The spirit God has given us is no cowardly spirit, but rather one that makes us strong, loving and wise.  2 Timothy 1:7
