Friends! I've been enlisted to help come up with the Scripture readings for my church's Pride Mass next month! Does anyone have any suggestions for passages they might recommend? #FaithfullyLGBT #QueerChristian

I am made in the image of God and I am VERY GOOD.

You are Holy. We are Holy. Together we stand Holy.

Just bought my ticket to the QCF conference! Early bird prices end next week.

I think it’s time for a re #introduction!

Hello! I'm Elliot. The birdsite was always my favorite social network, so I'm hoping this actually takes off as an alternative. #TwitterMigration #TwitterExodus

I'm #bisexual and practice #polyamory , I'm #progressive when it comes to Christianity (#FaithfullyLGBT #FaithfullyLGBTQ) and politics (#uspol #socialist #leftist), and I work in #software.

Sorry about my sense of humor; #puns are in the bi-laws.

I don't like taking pictures of myself, but I got my church's Pride shirt today and I'm excited so here's an ultra-rare spotting of a Lyssa in the wild

We have done, and continue to do, great work this week.

Being a parent of a young child brings new perspective to Jesus saying, “Take. Eat.”

"Diverse and beautiful, blessed and beloved, all made in the image of the Creator of all things"

What inclusive and affirming resources can you recommend for Pride Month?

Okay, I'm here now too! I figured I should make an intro post before I start just leaping into people's replies

• I'm Lyssa, I'm a YA SFF #author who writes Very Queer/Very Ace books
• I'm #aroace myself
• I'm a #spoonie/#chronicallyill (CFS/ME, fibromyalgia, POTS, endocrine issues and seizures goody gumdrops)
• I'm super tall? Is that worth mentioning? I'm 6'0"
• I'm a belligerently queer Christian #faithfullylgbt
• I love #nintendo! Yeah, yeah, fake gamer girl, but I got my NES when I was 6

I can't find any of these to post pictures but I thought it worth starting a list of #FaithfullyLGBT books for anybody wanting to join the #TransRightsReadathon

The few I have and can recommend are poetry:

• Queering Lent by Slats,
• Clouds Cannot Cover us
and
• Backwater Sermons, both by Jay Hulme

Are there any more Christian Trans authors you can recommend?

Dear #affirming #Anglican #ChurchOfEngland friends - if you haven’t already, please email or write to your bishops to encourage them in the step (albeit tentative) towards affirming #faithfullyLGBT relationships.

Given the noise generated in some quarters, a little encouragement could go a long way…

(In case it’s helpful here’s what I wrote to my wonderful bishop)

I just heard about the #Tennessee anti-Trans bills, and I feel sick to my stomach.
I mention it here because it seems to be #Christian (fundamentalists) driving this. Please, *please* be part of a progressive Christian move to step back all these unnecessarily cruel, oppressive and punitive acts of legislation.
#LGBT #Trans #FaithfullyLGBT

Also in my fb memories today, after a particularlyhomophobic visiting preacher the Sunday before:

"Incidentally, the CO of my local #SalvationArmy rang answering my question of whether LGBTQ folk can be soldiers or officers. Soldiers: only if celibate. Officers: not at all. It was a short conversation as she realised I would not be returning. "

Have things changed or improved at all since I left?

All right, I need queer Catholic content. I'm such a sad lonely queer Catholic that I went back to freaking Twitter because I know where my people are there. Where are my Catholic or Catholic-adjacent LGBT peeps here? #faithfullylgbt #faithfullylgbtq #lgbtchristian #lgbtchristians #affirmingchurches #affirmingchristian #affirmingcatholic
