Justice Moves Slowly for Amy DeLong


“Justice” moves slowly! For one hour this morning, the Respondent’s attorney  (that’s UMC-speak for defendant Amy DeLong) offered proof that had been disallowed by the presiding officer (judge) prior to the trial. All the info goes into the trial record but is not heard or considered by the jury.

Details like two bishops and numerous district superintendents being aware that Amy was in a committed partnership with her partner Val for the last ten years. And that one of her bishops ha stated to her thAt her partnership would not be a problem.

Stay tuned – jury selection after lunch.

    Hang in Amy and know there are lots of us out here praying for you and supporting you.  May justice truly be done and the church repent for its sin of exclusion.  Blessings!

    Know this our dear friend Amy-God loves us unconditionally, He rejoiced the day you were born, and considering the fact that God is not stupid or cruel He makes no mistakes and we are not born with a love that God cannot satisfy.
