What pronouns do you use? *

The Office of the Alaska Synod recognizes that names and pronouns are inherent to who we are; and it is up to each person how they choose to share part of their identity with others. We share pronouns because we want to avoid assuming someone's pronouns based on factors like appearance. We believe that it is important to give people the opportunity to state the pronoun that is correct to use when referring to them.
