UMC (in addition to the Letter)

Muslim

Roman Catholic

The UMC has divisions called conferences. I know specifically of 4 here in Texas that passed resolutions during their Annual Conference Meetings last week. Resolutions are normally tabled 24 hours before brought to vote but first there was a vote to suspend the rules and do it immediately since Conference was ending.

National Council of UMC Bishops also issued a resolution

The Letter though is very personal towards Sessions and I love it.

By sheer chance I managed to sign it
