Who is it for?
-
Gay and lesbian Christians who are seeking a safe place of friendship in which to reconcile their faith and sexuality and grow towards Christian maturity
-
Their partners and friends, parents and other family members
-
Churches that need a resource to help them understand the issues and needs of gay, lesbian and bisexual (GLB) people
-
Gay people without a faith who are seeking answers to life’s questions.
Our focus is:
-
our relationship with God
And our objectives are:
-
to work out our Christian discipleship together, in a way that is consistent with the teaching of Scripture, especially for those who are gay or lesbian
-
to dialogue with our brothers and sisters in churches who find homosexuality difficult to understand or accept
-
and to communicate the Good News to all who do not know Jesus Christ.

Jesus said to his disciples:
‘I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. But when he, the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth.’
John 16:12 and 13a
