We Are Affirmation
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals from every
background and situation, united in the shared experience of a spiritual and/or cultural
heritage in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS/Mormon).
- We affirm that sexual orientation, identity, and expression are special gifts from
God and that we are all children of loving Heavenly Parents
- We believe that our lives and relationships can be compatible with the gospel
of Jesus Christ and the Plan of Salvation, and that LGBT individuals are a special
part of God's Creation
- We reject the concept that orientation and identity can be changed and believe
that same sex relationships are entitled to the same recognition and blessings as
heterosexual relationships
We are a family that consists of active members of the LDS faith, former members and non-members.
Our membership consists of individuals at different places in the coming-out process, as well as families, friends and allies. Our mission is to provide a safe space where LGBT individuals, as well as those questioning their orientation, can associate with like individuals, ask questions, and know that they are not alone. We help LGBTQ people reconcile with their spirituality within the context of a common Mormon background.
