Reply #20: Episcopal Churches do come in all stripes--including the worst frozen chosen

[Peggesis1]

I'm an Episcopalian who has seen the best and the worst of quite a few churches. If you live in a large or medium sized city you should be able to find a Lutheran, Methodist, or Episcopal church that's very gay friendly. For example, in Toledo, there are two Episcopal Churches where the priests are themselves lesbians in open and committed relationships. I think you'll really want a church where gay people are not just tolerated but honored. You have every right to be respected. Another plus is the existance of small groups in the parish where you can meet with other people, gay and straight, to talk openly about yout faith.

I hope you find such a community. I know they're out there.
