When I was in Boston this weekend I took my friend to Copley Square because it has, in my experience, two of the most beautiful churches in the country. Outside of Old South Church (a United Church of Christ church), there was this sign. Big. And it was amazing how great I felt to see Trans on there. I imagine it would be the same for someone who was homeless or a recovering addict or bisexual or something else that people often judge you for - or who had an identity that has made other religious communities abandon you or shame you. It also wasn’t just listed with things that are “problems” or difficult. It was listed with Male and Female, with Nerd and Cool Kid… I just think this sign is so powerful and I wanted to share it with everyone.

i mean, i’m in france right now, and i don’t attend church anymore, but my church back home (gateway) is exactly like this. totally awesome and a hundred percent accepting and sometimes a little weird, and it’s great.
if you’re from austin and you’ve been thinking about possibly checking out a church/christianity/religion/a good place to find free coffee in the mornings, you should check out gateway.
they have services starting in two hours, three hours, and five hours (9:30, 11, 12:30).
just letting y’all know (:
