Easter Writing Project '15 Seeking Stories of Hope

GLAD’s Easter Writing Project for 2015 is getting underway.

For the past several years GLAD’s Easter Writing Project has provided thoughts and musings from affirming Disciples. Many have found the writing project valuable in their own affirming journey.

Are you ready to write for GLAD this year? Do you know someone who has a story to share?

Here is this year’s writing prompt. Contact GLAD Council Member Andrew Raker at araker@gladalliance.org for more information.

The Lord is Risen! is the Easter Acclamation. In the 50 days of the Easter season the disciples and followers of Jesus began to realize just how much Jesus had changed their lives. We read stories in the Acts account of the Jewish and Gentile followers of Jesus learning what Jesus and his message of love meant to them.

And this year, for the Easter Writing Project, GLAD is gathering stories of what it means to experience Jesus’ inclusive love for all; the love, affirmation and acceptance that is the heart of being an Open & Affirming congregation.

This year’s Easter Writing Project writing prompt: How have you personally experienced the meaning of God’s love in your life through the inclusive welcome of an Open & Affirming Congregation?

Will you join the Easter Writing Project this year with a story of your personal experience?

You can find past Easter Writing Projects on GLAD’s website under the Inspirations tab.
