The Moravian Church Northern Province believes that all of humankind is made in the image of God and declared good by God (Genesis 1:26-31).

Our church welcomes all people who seek to know God’s grace which is freely given to everyone. It therefore affirms the dignity and rights of persons of all gender identities recognizing that they are beloved children of God. All people, no matter who they are or how they identify, are welcome to be full members of our church including through marriage, and pursuing ordination.

We are a global church and we understand that not all provinces of our Moravian Church share this understanding. This is the understanding of the Moravian Church Northern Province, inclusive of our churches in Canada and the Northern United States.
