ESF releases letter to Mormon Church regarding kiss-in
The Love Unites Kiss-In follows the recent arrest of Matt Aune and Derek Jones. The gay couple was arrested by LDS security guards when they exchanged a kiss on Main Street Plaza in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The letter to Thomas S. Monson, President of the LDS Church, can be found at www.empoweringspirits.org/PRDocServer/LDS_Unity_Rally_072009.pdf.
The ESF hopes that both sides can engage in respectful dialogue and come to see similarities rather than differences.
