How Are Our Congregations Responding to the News of Bin Laden’s Assassination?
The EDC/FMC Peace and Justice committee is deeply concerned about the national response to the news of Osama Bin Laden’s assassination. We believe that this reaction is contrary to our calling as Christians to love our enemies, to feed them if they are hungry and to give them something to drink if they are thirsty. We are very interested in hearing about how congregations are responding to the news. Please email jason.hedrick@easterndistrict.org with a brief summary of what your congregation is doing.
The opinions expressed in articles posted on Mosaic’s website are those of the author and may not reflect the official policy of Mosaic Conference. Mosaic is a large conference, crossing ethnicities, geographies, generations, theologies, and politics. Each person can only speak for themselves; no one can represent “the conference.” May God give us the grace to hear what the Spirit is speaking to us through people with whom we disagree and the humility and courage to love one another even when those disagreements can’t be bridged.
