Today I was served communion by a transwoman. A gay minister officiating over the communion table while lovingly holding his 3-year-old son in his arms. “When someone intentionally made room for a transwoman to serve me communion, I was made better, not lesser.”Today, I was the one who received. If we truly want to increase diversity in church leadership, we must make space for diversity. But for now, just as a starting point, I do know this: When someone intentionally made room for a transwoman to serve me communion, I was made better, not lesser.
