Recently a small group of people, of which I am one, met to discuss several possibilities to gather the LGBT community and those who support them within the Episcopal Church. One of our thoughts was to consider forming an Integrity Chapter in the diocese, or perhaps just a social group, or maybe both, or something new. The upcoming dialog on December 12th is to gather us all together to talk about what such a group might look like and how it would best benefit us. This group is not only for people who are LGBT, but for all of us who support them and want an arena to be together in love and peace. To explore our commonalities, share our stories, be loved, prayed for, and perhaps even be a voice in our diocese for lawful changes that will bring equality for all. Please join us and help bring the Kingdom here and now where we will all enjoy the fruits of God’s great creation – equally.
