I’m LGBTQIA+. Am I welcome here?
Yes, of course! We are all created in God’s image and we do not believe that our LGBTQIA+ brothers, sisters, and others are sinning by how they express gender or sexuality.
In the Episcopal church LGBTQIA+ are represented in our laity and all of our orders – deacons, priests, and bishops. Full inclusion is yours.
Same-sex couples may be married at St. John's, as in most Episcopal churches. If you are interested in the sacrament of holy matrimony, please contact Rev. Stephen at [email protected].
You can find St. John's representing at Yonkers Pride, the only faith community to do so in 2023. More resources can be found at Gaychurch.org.
By the way, we’re glad you found this church, especially if you’ve been hurt or marginalized in the name of Christian faith elsewhere.
