Supporting LGBTQ+ Communities Under Pressure
This is a virtual support and strategy space for Open and Affirming churches navigating escalating challenges facing LGBTQ+ people and their families.
Across the country, LGBTQ+ communities are experiencing increased attacks on visibility, dignity, healthcare access, safety, and belonging. Many churches are asking how to respond faithfully, protect their people, and organize without losing their pastoral grounding.
This gathering is a facilitated space to check in, share what we are seeing in our congregations, and discern concrete next steps together.
We will center LGBTQ+ voices and lived experience throughout our time. Allies and accomplices are welcome to participate in a spirit of listening, learning, and solidarity.
Together, we will support one another, strengthen our collective response, and build faithful action for this moment.
