The final online session of the 2025 WSFS Business Meeting is complete. And now, I'm going to go crawl into some fanfic and pretend that I don't still have an in-person meeting to preside over in 3 weeks.

Today's virtual meeting is finished, and I'm really freaking tired. Presiding with a headcold is a *challenge.* But hey, presiding with a headcold also gave us the WSFS Unicorn Sparkle Committee, so.

Many thanks to Jesi Lipp @artzfreak.bsky.social for this Affirmation of Faith to accompany this year's Trans Day of Visibility. Let this statement ground and encourage your congregation this Sunday!

A baroque-looking background with an angel whose color changes from pink to blue through 7 slides. The following text is split amongst the 7 slides.

We believe in the Creator, who made the day and the night, not separate but continually transforming into each other, and thus also gave us the dawn and the twilight, neither day nor night.

We believe in Jesus, the Child of the Creator, who is fully human and fully divine, challenging our simple understandings of biology; who before his disciples was wholly transfigured beyond their comprehension and beyond ours; who was tortured and murdered by religious authorities and the government for being who he was called to be; who was resurrected and returned to a body so changed that his dearest friends did not recognize him.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, who does not take one shape but many, coming to us in the form of a dove and of wind and of fire; who guides us into being the truest version of ourselves.

We believe in the God who revealed to Abraham and Sarah and Peter and Paul that their true name was not the one they had been assigned at birth; a God who does not make mistakes, because transgender people are not a mistake, but in their transness show us the image of a transformational and transcendent God.

We know that each of us, as the Church, is called to continual transformation so that we may transform the world. We know that, in that calling, we must work to dismantle systems that attempt to erase our beloved trans siblings from existence.

We believe in forgiveness and reconciliation, which unite us in a new understanding of what it is to be human. We believe in eternal life, in which we will all be made wonderfully and queerfully new in the Kindom where God reigns forever.

Say whatever shit you want about me, but don't fucking misgender me while doing it. It makes it really difficult to follow my "assume good intentions until proven otherwise" rule and believe you're operating in good faith if you're using the wrong pronouns for me while doing so.

And if anyone thinks they’ve painted themselves into a corner with the interaction of Santa they’ve allowed their kids to believe in - why not tell them that Santa has been overthrown and a new Santa will be elected by the elves council in due course? The reset is in easy reach.

1. In a major development, the first national consensus guidelines for trans youth have been released in France. They recommend affirmation and medical care, denounce "wait and see." They refute much of the Cass Review. Subscribe to support my journalism. www.erininthemorning.com/p/new-french...
