| Rev Elder Nancy Wilson visits MCC Edinburgh | ||||
| MCC Edinburgh hosted the first visit of Rev Elder Nancy Wilson to Scotland.
MCCers from across Scotland gathered to hear Rev Wilson's inspiring message about the place of MCC as a global movement for change bringing God's inclusive love to all people.
She spoke about her history with MCC from the early 1970's and how the denomination has responded, first, to the full inclusion of women, and then how the denomination was responded to HIV.
The role of young people in MCC is now crucial as they are our future leaders, and it is true that our future is in their hands. Rev Elder Wilson is the Moderator of Metropolitan Community Church an inclusive Christian church that affirms and welcomes all people including the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) community. During her visit to the UK she was a guest speaker at the conference of the European Forum of Lesbian and Gay Christians.
