The Church welcomes all those who approach the altar with reverence
and respect to take the sacrament of Holy Communion. All human beings
are children of God and must be treated with respect. God created man
in his own image (Genesis 1:27) and as we learn from Galatians 3:28:
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there
is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
Living in the spirit of the Christ consciousness, the Church of the Rose
and Cross does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, nationality,
gender, or sexual orientation.
The Church is a Church of Christ, when one enters the Church the outer
world fades away and the congregation becomes one body, united in the
presence of Christ which knows no division. The Church will not promote one
nation over another nor fly any flag but the banner of heaven and shall work
tirelessly to bring the Christ consciousness to all mankind.
Holy matrimony was ordained a sacred sacrament by God for the union of
men and women. As such, same-sex unions may be blessed by a priest or
bishop, but no marriage ceremony will be conducted for them.
