Faces of Affirmation

Faces of Affirmation is a collection of written stories from members of the Affirmation community. Authors share their personal journey, often detailing their early relationship with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, coming to terms with their sexual orientation and/or gender identity, their experience coming out to their friends and family, and their current relationship with the church and their beliefs.

We share these stories to show that no LGBTQ Mormon, family member, or friend is alone and hope that readers may find similarities between their own experience and the authors and be strengthened in their own journey.
