Baptists Agree to Start Hiring Homosexuals for Mission Service
CBF relaxes policy on hiring LGBTQ staff, but maintains some restrictions"...the CBF governing body has stated that it will “consider” the sexuality of proposed staff or missionaries, but unlike the 18-year-old policy now replaced, it will not ban them from service."
"The Cooperative Baptist Fellowship will continue to make sexual orientation a consideration in some, but not all, employment decisions with a new hiring policy and implementation plan adopted Feb. 9 by the CBF Governing Board."
