Easter Message from Affirmation: LGBTQ Mormons, Families & Friends
As Easter arrives, we pause to honor a sacred season of renewal, resurrection, and hope. It’s a time that speaks to the possibility of transformation—a reminder that healing and new life are always within reach.
Within our community, Easter holds different meanings. Some will attend worship services, finding comfort in familiar hymns and traditions. Others will spend this time in reflection, having stepped away from faith spaces that no longer feel like home. Affirmation embraces the full spectrum of these experiences, honoring both faith and freedom.
The Easter story is one of rising after sorrow, of love overcoming fear, and of new life unfolding in unexpected ways. As LGBTQ people connected to the Latter-day Saint tradition, many of us have walked paths shaped by loss, discovery, and courage. Whether you’re still finding your way or standing firm in your truth—you belong here.
Wherever you are this Easter—at church, in nature, with loved ones, or simply with yourself—know that you are part of a larger community that sees you, values you, and journeys with you.
In community,
