About this Event
An opportunity to reflect on the particular issues that may arise when accompanying directees:
- for whom being lesbian or gay is already part of their identity; or
- who may be exploring their gender or sexuality as part of their journey of faith; or
- who may be challenged by finding their close relative or friend is lesbian or gay
We hope to look together at
- Our shared experiences of "sameness" and "otherness”
- One spiritual director's experience of "otherness" in her faith journey
- Further resources for both reflection and support
Facilitated by
- Clare Herbert - author of "Towards a Theology of Same Sex Marriage" (2021 - Jessica Kingsley Publishers), priest and spiritual director. Lives in Emsworth, worshipping at St Thomas a Becket, Warblington, and the Quaker Meeting in Chichester
- Max Millett – spiritual director
- Hazel Buckingham – spiritual director
Please note: Each letter in the abbreviation LGBTQIA+ represents a distinct set of issues concerning sexual orientation and gender identity. This session focuses purely on the possible spiritual needs of lesbian and gay people (LG). A further session(s) may be helpful regarding other groups known by the abbreviations BTQIA.
