In the next phase of our church’s commitment to be an Open & Affirming community of faith, we have invited a panel of three transgendered persons to speak about their personal experiences, struggles, dreams, and victories in a world that does not always accept their nature. If you’ve ever had any questions about what it means to be transgendered, this is your opportunity learn in an open forum with three people who have inspiring stories to share.
