Affirming faith communities

Affirming faith communities explicitly welcome and honor LGBTQ+ members rather than tolerating or condemning them, rooting this stance in their theological tradition rather than despite it. They insist that identity and belonging are not negotiable, and that religious life and authentic selfhood can flourish together.
