There was a great article in the New York Times yesterday about Rev. Katrina Foster and her current plight within the church. Rev. Foster declared at the last assembly of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America that she was in a relationship, which is currently forbidden within the church, though being openly gay is not. The assembly will meet again in 2009 and vote formally on the issue.
We love the description of Rev. Foster, “who wears rectangle-shaped eyeglasses a no-nonsense brown ponytail.” But more than that, the article highlights her commitment to the congregation and their commitment to her. One 51 year old congregant, who would protest if Rev. Foster was defrocked, said, “When they explain how she’s living in sin, it’s hard for me to fathom that.” Exactly.
