The Unofficial United Church Handbook has a section on potluck suppers.

And almost 2 pages on jellied salads.

And advice on what to do if a ferret is loose during worship.

*dies*

and I'm only on page 53

...the jellied salads, that I understand. (I think it's from living so long among the Lutherans, which is its own flavor of worrisome.)

But how often does one have to worry about a ferret loose in the sanctuary?

Hmm... Do you think it is more or less often than worrying about inclusive language?

3. Take a Deep Breath.
Brath control is crucial for any kind of speaking, inclusive or not. Taking a breath also gives you time to think about what you want to say. Thinking before speaking is a new skill for some, so don't be discouraged if you muddle it the first few times.

So if it's a feminist congregation member's pet ferret, and it's menacing the jello salads that are on the table waiting for the after-church fellowship potluck and blessing of the animals, do you use different inclusive language than if it's a wild ferret that wandered in to share in God's abundance (and jello salads?)

I used to think you Canadians were crazy but now I know for sure.
