    Welcome to the largest gay affirming church directory in the world! Would you

   like to add your Christian church to this list or modify a church that is already

   listed? If so email us at G.A.L.I.P.. galipfoundation@earthlink.net

   We need your church name, location, denomination, web site url (if you

   have one) and a contact email address. Physical and email address are for

   our records only.

 

    All churches listed represent themselves in some form or fashion as an

    affirming Christian church (i.e. gay friendly). "Affirming" means that the

    church does not view homosexuality in and of itself as a sin and therefore they

    would welcome and treat a homosexual person no differently than any other

    person who walked through their church doors seeking Christ.

 

   "Affirming" does not necessarily mean that the church is allowed to ordain

    gay ministers, perform holy unions etc... These issues are usually set at the

    denominational level and are, many times, outside of the auspices of the

    individual church.

   

    A word of caution however. While we work hard to validate that these

   churches are indeed welcoming we cannot be 100% sure that they are. In

   some cases, gaychurch.org is only passing along material from various church

   organizations etc. that stipulates that these churches are welcoming (public

   domain information). If this information proves to be incorrect or you would like

   to add a church to this list, or make changes to information already listed.

   Please contact G.A.L.I.P. and let us know.

 

    If a congregation has a web site we have attempted to link to it.

    Gaychurch.org is not responsible for the content of these churches web sites.

    Nor do our beliefs necessarily correspond with the beliefs held by many of

    these congregations. There is much diversity of beliefs within the Body of

    Christ.

 

   List is updated on an almost daily basis. For the major revisions to the directory

   see the archives. Also, help us 'get the word out'! Contact your local library

   today and ask them to stock more gay affirming Christian books! Change the

   world one heart and mind at a time!
