Sile Singleton is an intriguing individual who challenges labels of sex, gender, and sexuality.  Join us we hear Sile's story.  Having grown up in the small river town of Zanesville, Ohio, to families on both sides with a history of service as clergy, Sile literally grew up in the church.  Now a member of Summit United Methodist Church in Columbus, Sile works to create spaces where others can feel free to give voice to who they are.

Ken Schoon is a clergy candidate in the West Ohio Conference of the United Methodist Church. Discerning his need to be authenticate in his candidacy process, Ken came out as a "self-avowed practicing homosexual" to his district committee on ordination. This bold move and the responses of others within the denomination has sparked conversations throughout the West Ohio Conference and the entire denomination, sparking other candidates to come out during their own processes and fueling conversation about the role of human sexuality in the ordination process.
