Extractions: Rev. Ruth Frost with her Partner Phyllis Zillhart On Sunday April 17, Rev. Ruth Frost delivered her final sermon as an Associate Pastor at St. Francis Lutheran Church, San Francisco. Pastor Frost and her spouse Pastor Phyllis Zillhart, together with Pastor Jeff Johnson (now of University Lutheran Chapel, Berkeley) started LLGM following their groundbreaking ordinations in 1990. In this sermon, Pr. Frost movingly reflects on 15 years of ministry in the context of the gospel's Easter message. Full text of Ruth's Sermon Who We Are... Founded in 1990, Lutheran Lesbian & Gay Ministries (LLGM) is a national mission society that supports openly identified sexual minority pastors, seminarians and lay ministers who have been discriminated against because of their sexual orientation. 150 years ago, the mission societies of Europe raised money to send pastors to serve the immigrant population on the American frontier, because the state churches of Europe refused to do so. Today, Lutheran Lesbian & Gay Ministries (LLGM) is doing the same for gay and lesbian pastors, because of the "refusal" policies of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). In the decade and a half since our founding, LLGM's donors have provided hundreds of thousands of dollars in support to congregations and ministries who call gay and lesbian pastors.

Night Program Youth News Links The word "Family" is powerful almost beyond words. "Family" is more a promise about what people can be to each other, or a way of saying what God can create out of ordinary people. That's us. Once, about 1911, we were German Lutherans on the bayou, with some stem-faced photographs concealing a deep and simple love for God. Now, we are a mix of people; single, married, young, old, seeking, finding. We know that we are brought together by God to be his people for each other. We know that Christ in our midst gives us the strength we need. We know that our church is really a servant, the image of Jesus in the community, with programs and people, hands and hearts dedicated to serving, helping, growing. We are a family. God's powerful, accepting, nurturing love makes us that family. We are the people who want to welcome you, love you, make you a part of the warmth we know, share the love of Christ and the excitement of life with Him. Welcome! Join us! Grow with us!
