Presbyterians support the anxious

THE PRESBYTERY of Santa Fe, a network of 40 Presbyterian Churches in the northern half of New Mexico, stands with all who feel anxiety about statements, conduct, and promises from the new administration. This includes immigrants, refugees, women, the LGBTQ community, Muslims, Jews, African-Americans, Native Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, those disabled, those suffering from sexual trauma, and the poor.

Members and neighbors of our churches express concern for themselves and others. Though Presbyterians are not of one political voice and do not endorse political candidates, our Presbytery and the PC(USA) denomination speak in one voice, through faith, when it comes to upholding the commandment to love one’s neighbor as oneself, and the emphasis upon justice reflected throughout the Bible and embodied by Jesus Christ.

THE REV. LORELEI KAY Moderator, on behalf of Presbytery of Santa Fe
