LGBTQIA+ youth comprise up to 40% of the total homeless youth population across the US. Through the end of June, 40% of all socks that we donate over 6 weeks (up to 1 million pairs) will be donated to homeless members of the LGBTQIA+ community across the US.

Queer Christians: hey Churches, it would be helpful to us if you were up front about your LGBTQ policy so we can decide if we wanna come.

(some) Churches: Nah, we love everybody, but y’all wouldn’t come if we told you our policy up front.

Me: 🤯🙃😒😡

What will you be preaching abt #HolyWeek #PalmSunday #GoodFriday? I'll be talking about how Jesus knows that he is now in full solidarity with crucified ones everywhere, wherever they are. It is the biggest surrendering and renaming of power. @PresbyNews https://t.co/L2GxUbjb3g

God, we find ourselves in the wilderness of white supremacy. But we are your hands & feet. Fill us with the Holy Spirit as we follow you towards dismantling the –isms that continue to harm our world. Amen.
How do you stay filled with the Holy Spirit in this justice work?
