Of course God doesn't make mistakes. But that is no reason to shun or not to pray for these people.

No one here has said not to pray for them OR to shun them.  Saying someone is mentally ill is neither of those things.  At the same time, keeping with the OP, a church should not be condoning mental disorders or sinful behavior.  That is the topic.

Forgive my overlooking this, who advocated shunning and not holding these people in prayer?

No one.  That was just an assumption.

Ah yes, that is how I read it also. I did want to make sure I didn't overlook though. Thank you. :)

There is a lot of this kind of thing making the news over the years. These decisions are voted on by men trusted to keep the church and to God's word. And then they fail by letting something like this happen. 
Transgender should be led from their sin. Not promoted in it.

Einstein said, "the press, the politics, and sometimes even the church is controlled by the elite." So the controlled press is aligned with those elite controlled churches. The Episcopal's Reverend Eugene Robinson was appointed Bishop. After leaving his wife and children to live with his gay lover, Mr. Robinson said, "he would be a Christian minister and not a gay minister." He is a friend of the world. Many churches serve at the behest of the elites. They even advertise together as a union, as if your church does not support homosexuality then you are not showing Christian love. To those who are gay and claim to be Christian. It is said, "Why do you say you believe in God but live as though he does not exist."

The Episcopal. the United Methodist, the Presbyterian. the United Church of Christ, and others are in "full communion." They do not promote salvation but annihilation. "Be not deceived, no fornicators, no adulterers. no sodomites, no liars, no murderers, no thieves, shall see the kingdom of God." Jesus died for our sins not for us to sin.  Transgender is the embodiment of a living lie. And their is too much evidence of the mental illness. It is now against the law for psychologists to treat the transgressors.

The United Nations said to stem the population tide: sex education, abortion, and homosexuality is to be promoted.

Then they cannot balk when they are said to be appropriately titled as the nations united against God? 

All foretold of course. In the last days people will turn away from the sound doctrine of the true God and Christ. And follow instead the path of the evil one. 

It is a time I never thought I would see in my lifetime. But have our grandparents or great grandparents said that same thing with cultural or societal changes that they witnessed? Good is now evil. Evil is now tolerable. And people of righteous moral beliefs are persecuted, even prosecuted , for holding to those. 

What strange times. Thank God we have Jesus. :)

We are born xx or xy . There is no option to choose. There has never been before now the huge controversy that "it isnt a choice". It mimics the homosexual agenda but delves even further into sinning against oneself and Gods creation.

Satan attacks the mind > Eph 6....ie mental confusion,illness, disorder, insanity! Different degress same family. Tomato... tomatoe...

Those who deny the truth  and instead choose their sinful desires are turned over to believe it more!  : Romans 1:28

They do not have the capacity to think rationally. 

They have decided they are GOD . They choose for themselves what sex they will be. 

It living and eternal suicide which btw trans suicide is around 41% whereas the 4.6% of the general public.( american foundation for suicide prevention data)
