How does being queer affect our relationship with faith? How can religion be more inclusive? Join us for a more sensitive session where we discuss the positive and negative experiences of those who have grown up with, or have, faith and are queer.
To prepare for this session, we have reached out to a number of groups and experienced professional across campus that come from a range of religions. The purpose of this session isn't to argue, or question anyone's beliefs, but to learn from one another and get a better understand how queer people can have different experiences with faith. If you do have any concerns about this week's topic, please do get in contact with us, as we want to hear and help with your concerns.
