It was resolved that:

97.19.03

on behalf of the Uniting Church in Australia, to affirm that male and female are created in the image of God. Inherent in this affirmation is the acknowledgement that:

• 
  each one of us has dignity and is of value;
• 
  each one of us has a right to be welcomed and to participate within the community of God;
• 
  we can celebrate the uniqueness of each individual and be encouraged to respect our differences;
• 
  we allow opportunities for each individual to use their gifts within the community of faith;
• 
  we use and hear language that helps us to feel included within the Church;
• 
  we express our sexuality as the embodiment of God's creation in ways that honour God and honour each other, through right and just relationships.
