Opinion piece by Bishop Justin Grimm of the #ELCA #SaintPaul Area Synod, in today’s #Minnesota Star Tribune. #homelessness #poverty #PublicPolicy

This public statement by one of the Church's Bishops is exemplary of every bishop's vocation. Thankfully, we live in a time when many bishops are committed to "speaking Truth to power." @grimmjustin.bsky.social @elcalutherans.bsky.social www.startribune.com/pigs-eye-hom...

I write as a bishop, but first as a follower of Jesus, who was himself born with no place to lay his head. Our synod exists to embolden a witness for justice. We Lutherans can suffer from what I have called Lutheran laryngitis, a reluctance to speak our faith where it counts. It's time we get over it. When our neighbors are surviving homelessness on our streets, silence is not humility. Silence is a failure of faith. Jesus tells us plainly: whatever you did for one of the least of these, you did for me. The person sleeping in a tent by the river is not a problem to be cleared. That person is our brother, our sister, a child of God and a member of this Minnesota family. What we do unto them, we do unto Christ himself. Let me say clearly what love requires of us now. We must stop the sweeps. Clearing an encampment solves nothing. It moves a suffering human being from one patch of cold ground to another, at great public cost, and it further traumatizes an already hurt person, making it even harder to connect them to needed resources. It is the appearance of action standing in for the real thing. Faith is not satisfied by appearances. There is a better way. Everyone says we should meet people where they're at. I say we should mean it, literally. Meet people where they are, on the ground, by name, and walk with them toward safety, toward health, toward a home. The St. Paul City Council has taken up a wise and practical plan to do exactly that. We all know that these steps must be on the path to housing. We must create more deeply affordable housing, so that the path we walk together ends in a home. Justice is love made public. It is love with its sleeves rolled up. Love does not drive the vulnerable from sight; love brings them in. Love does not ask a person to prove they deserve shelter; love opens the door. The same gospel that calls us to racial and economic justice calls us here, to the people our systems have failed most completely. I know something about taking ris…
To the City Council: thank you for your leadership. You have shown the courage to begin, and I am grateful for it. Nothing is perfect, and this plan will not be either. But St. Paul cannot do this on its own. Our neighbors surviving homelessness cross the river and the county line every day. Now every other community and body of government must join this work and move toward solutions: Minneapolis, Ramsey County, Hennepin County and the state of Minnesota. The prophet Jeremiah told God's people to seek the shalom of the city, because in its shalom they would find their own. Shalom is the well-being of every neighbor. None of our cities will know shalom while our neighbors sleep outside. And to Mayor Kaohly Her: I ask you to walk this road alongside the council, people of faith and goodwill, and the neighbors most affected. Do these practical things as part of a far larger vision: the ending of economic violence for all of God's people. Stop the sweeps. Sit down together. Commit the resources to meet this moment, so that every person has a safe place to be, and every family a door that opens to them, no matter which side of the river they are on. The 106 congregations of this synod are a mission outpost for the world, and the world is right here, on our own streets. We will not be quiet. And with God's help, we will not fail our neighbors for want of courage. The Rev. Justin Grimm is bishop of the St. Paul Area Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.

The 1991 #ELCA Churchwide Assembly adopted the social statement “The Death Penalty”, demonstrating this church’s early opposition to #capitalpunishment. It calls the church to respond to violent crime in the restorative way taught by Jesus and shown by his actions. www.elca.org/news/bishop-...
