Details

This online workshop series invites people of faith who are working for LGBTQIA+ inclusion and liberation to gather in community. 

Together, we will sink our hands into the soil in which we build Beloved Community: love. What does love mean to us, and how is it moving in our lives? What practices of love are sustaining and softening us in the hardness of the present moment? How can we be love’s accomplices in transforming our faith communities to embrace queer experiences and people?

Through breathing, stretching, movement, discussion, and journaling, we will explore how love can help us re-member, interrupt fragmentation, and reclaim wholeness in ourselves and our communities.

The initial workshop will be offered two times: June 25, for those whose identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, questioning, non-binary, Two Spirit, intersex, asexual, aromantic, or otherwise outside of cisgender heterosexuality; and July 9, for  cisgender and heterosexual allies of the LGBTQIA+ community. 

Those who attend will be invited to join the third workshop to go deeper in a mixed identity setting. Attendees will receive a Zoom link to the third workshop, on Saturday, August 15, 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., via email. 

Consider joining us for Dreaming Sanctuary: An Intergenerational LGBTQ+ Gathering on August 7 through 10 to continue this learning and community building.
