Last Tuesday, Dan expected to spend time signing the Milwaukee Declaration. But there was a last minute move to add ambiguity to the language in order to allow some churches, which openly condone homosexual relationships, to be identified as married within the church. Dan and other pastors objected to the redefinition of marriage, while also expressing our need to reach out and minister to those trapped in sin, whether homosexual behavior, greed, or any other sin. The Milwaukee Declaration is not yet signed. Please pray for the council of pastors, that they remain both compassionate and Biblical.

Dan and Sherry participated in the monthly BASICS (Brothers And Sisters In Christ Serving) team meeting last Thursday. BASICS in Milwaukee is a powerful alliance of evangelical Christians working to evangelize and care for Milwaukee, and is assisting in the Friend of Sinners church plant. During the meeting there was much discussion about the turn of events in the Milwaukee Declaration meeting, some of which was recorded here (VIDEO). The team also discussed man successful ministries currently active in Milwaukee, including those who minister in the midst of suffering.
