Why isn’t the CMLT more “genderfied?” Well, it turns out the female and non-binary leaders of Leaven Community/Salt & Light with time and capacity decided to sign-up for the Transition Discernment Team (TDT). This is the team that will midwife the communal process for determining the next iteration of long-term leadership for Leaven Community/Salt & Light Lutheran Church. So, there you have it.
