Reconciling Ministries Network

16 years of welcome — and Centenary Downtown- a United Methodist Church in Richmond, VA is still going strong. 🎉

Centenary UMC in Richmond, VA, was the first reconciling congregation in the Virginia Annual Conference, and this past Sunday they marked the milestone in the best way possible. Their pastor, Rev. Emily Bagwell (she/her) shared part of her own personal story in the sermon, RMN board member (and Centenary member!) Kathy Talley helped lead worship, and the whole congregation gathered for a photo to close it out.

This is what the movement looks like — real communities, real stories, real belonging.
