Yes, Jerk. To lead people to believe you speak directly for God and then use that power as the Pope did Monday to tell them God says their very existence is a sin is cruel beyond measure. And no amount of asterisks in Monday’s letter from the Pope can offset telling already marginalized people that they simply can’t have what everyone else has because God believes their very existence to be a sin.
 
Everyone involved in crafting that letter knows the Catholic Church has a suicide problem in its gay community and knew this letter would make it much worse, especially after this Pope had been repeatedly presented as someone who truly cares and still they wrote it anyway. And the Pope no more needs to hurt the LGBTQ community than he needs to go to Africa and say for the vast majority of its existence the Catholic Church condoned slavery or tell Kamala Harris that women in leadership goes directly against Catholic teachings. The church has abandoned more than it’s kept in the past 2,000 years. It’s time to add tolerance towards gay hatred to the abandoned pile.
 
Everybody involved in Monday’s letter also knows full well as 2 Timothy points out, the Bible is the creation of man. But there is no doubt God creates gay people. Yet still they use the platform that God and Jesus have given them to create more hurt in the lives of those who already face far too much. Jerk is too mild a word, but it is the strongest word Penzeys has in our inventory. So through tonight half price Jerk Pork and Jerk Chicken and Fish Seasonings. Both are awesome representations of Jamaican culture. So very tasty. So easy to use. Just sprinkle on.
 
Plus, all the money we receive for Jerk sales yesterday and today will be going to The Trevor Project because they work to save the very lives the Pope just put at risk. Please send them your money so they can save more lives. We’ve also expanded our $1 Potato of Love offer to include our entire Official Penzeys Rainbow Spice lineup at just $1 each with each of those dollars going to The Trevor Project as well. No one should feel alone. Especially this week.
 
No coupons or codes needed for $1 Rainbow Spices, half-price Jerk Seasonings, or free $3.95 Choose Love Magnet with any purchase. Just visit us at penzeys.com to place your order to be shipped or for touchless pickup outside of one of our stores. Already I can say from your response yesterday alone, we will be sending a good-sized check to The Trevor Project and hopefully together we can more than double that today.
 
If you have all the spices you need and then some, you directly making a gift and encouraging those you know to do the same would mean so much. Thanks to everyone who gave yesterday. If that wasn’t you and you have the means, please give today. They really are good at saving those the Vatican so thoughtlessly put at risk. The Trevor Project is worth bookmarking. They help so many.
 
And please, this week while the Pope and his team are doing so much to add extra hurt to those who already face far too much pain, please-please point and laugh and mock the idea that they in any way speak for God. But please also don’t stop rooting for them to turn this around. Monday was a huge setback for the future of the church. Time is growing short, but there is still a chance Pope Francis could live up to his expectations and bring the Catholic Church back to the teachings of Jesus. What a day that would be.
 
But for now, the job is protecting those most at risk from this cruelty that has taken hold. As a cook your voice is far more respected than you imagine. The first step in saving lives is you making it clear that anyone who doesn’t give equal respect to the LGBTQ community and leaves open every door to them that gets left open for everyone else doesn’t have your respect. Please take that first step and at least a few more. Those at risk need you.
 
Jerk Spices, Rainbow Spices, The Trevor Project.
 
Thanks!
