An eight-slide social media carousel that explains what it means to be a Reconciling in Christ congregation in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America: the welcome statement, the commitment to racial equity, how the community decides, and why saying it out loud still matters. Feed and Story sizes, with room for your logo.

Your church is Reconciling in Christ. But in the ELCA, where each congregation decides its own stance, visitors can’t assume anything about where a Lutheran church stands, and plenty of people in your own pews couldn’t explain what the designation means. This carousel explains it in eight slides, plainly enough for a visitor scrolling past and specifically enough to show that your welcome is a commitment your community chose together.
The slides cover what a Reconciling in Christ congregation commits to: a welcome statement that names people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions, joined to a commitment to racial equity. They explain how the community discerns and votes to adopt that statement, and they trace the story from Lutherans organizing for LGBTQ+ inclusion in 1974 and the Reconciling in Christ program’s start in 1983 to more than 1,000 congregations today. The set closes with an honest word about why, even after the ELCA’s 2009 decision, a congregation still needs to say where it stands.
The design runs on a flowing rainbow gradient that moves from lime through coral and magenta to lavender and teal as you swipe, so the full spectrum unfolds across the set. Each slide carries the text on a frosted panel that stays readable on any phone.
Post the full set on the Sunday you celebrate becoming Reconciling in Christ, during Pride Month, or whenever you welcome new members. Pin it to the top of your Instagram profile so visitors checking out your church find it first. Use the blank image to share a line from your own welcome statement. The closing slide says your church is a Reconciling in Christ congregation, so this set is written for churches that have already adopted their welcome statement. New to carousels? Our quick tutorial will show you how.
