Welcome to our August Newsletter!

Our Lady Undoer of Knots pray for us!

We are an
Independent Inclusive
Catholic Community

We are now in dialogue with the Progressive Catholic Church International
Although we are doing well as a truly independent Catholic community, there are advantages to belonging to a larger jurisdiction. We have looked into several and find the Progressive Catholic Church to be very compatible with our thinking.

Bishop-elect Bill Mentz and Father Al have had several conversations, and recently Bill came to visit us to concelebrate mass with our community (see link to the Mass on August 1st below).

Please pray for us as we enter this period of discernment.

Our Lady Undoer of Knots is a faith community in the
Federation of Christian Ministries
We Do Weddings!!
We have recently opened a site on WeddingWire.com and TheKnot.com to offer the resources of our community for joining couples together. It's still "under construction" but we are already getting inquiries.

In July, Father Al was the officiant at K & C's wedding.

We hope to help many others "tie the knot" in the future. Of course we welcome all regardless of previous marital status or gender identity.

Our Lady Undoer of Knots Inclusive Catholic Community is the Baltimore Chapter of DignityUSA, the oldest and largest association of LGBTQi Catholics. We are the first chapter of Dignity in Baltimore since the 1980's. Dignity Baltimore is a "ministry" within our community.

If you know of LGBTQi catholics in the Baltimore area, please let them know about us.

NEW FLAGS FOR OUR SANCTUARY
Thanks to the generosity of Chip, a member of our community, our sanctuary is now graced by two beautiful flags: the flag of the stat of Maryland and the Rainbow Flag of the LGBTQi community.

Thank you Chip!!!
