The Atlantic Northeast District, at its 1992 District Conference, adopted a policy statement on homosexuality, which reads as follows:“…in light of the Scriptures and the 1983 and 1992 actions of Annual Conference in regard to homosexuality, we of the Atlantic Northeast District desire to support Christ-centered ministry which seeks to help people stop practicing homosexuality, and we will not support anything which promotes accepting the practice of homosexuality as a lifestyle that is approved by God.”
BRF would encourage other districts (and congregations) to take the same kind of action. If enough districts and congregations would take a stand like this, it could affect the policy of the national church.
