Queer Spiritual Explorers is a 4-week course designed for LGBTQ+ people to understand and explore their faith and spirituality. We recognise that spaces to talk about faith can be difficult for queer people - or may be led to promote specific beliefs.
Each session follows a specific theme - in the space of 4 weeks allowing us to build a space that centres queer people and their experiences and allows us to express, understand and deepen our faith and beliefs through those around us.
This course aims to promote dialogue for people of all faiths (and none) - and all experiences are welcome, especially those who may be unclear on their own beliefs.
Week 1: Cultural and historic origins
Week 2: Ritual, belonging and community
Week 3: Finding our place or building our own
