Dywwik Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I currently have an agenda for LGBTQ people in church! I want them to feel welcome because they are. Being a pioneer in this movement is quite difficult. I wish I wasn't alone, but the few steps I take will be few steps that the next person will not have to! I am in a discussion with my Bishop on how to include trans people who were baptized as babies and under their old gender and dead-name. We are making progress! I feel in a very slow fight, and yet I'm wining. This "fight" had to be done years ago, but I still am proud to be a part of it! To help me understand other parts of the LGBTQ, I read many, MANY book on pride, what it actually means to be gay, trans, and queer theory so I can give a brief answer to anyone about anything! 1 2 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditch the Label Staff Liam Hackett Posted June 3, 2021 Ditch the Label Staff Share Posted June 3, 2021 Hi Dywwik, Just wanted to jump on here to say a huge congratulations on doing what you're doing. Using your voice to make your church a safe space for others is such a huge, commendable thing and you should be hugely proud of yourself - that takes a lot of courage and determination. Keep it up and keep using your voice - you are powerful and are creating real change for others. Well done. Liam 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsoon Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 That’s amazing :). The world needs more people like you, especially in spaces where there can be resistance towards accepting people form minority groups. Truly inspiring work! 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
