As Christ followers, members of The Episcopal Church have a legacy of inclusion, aspiring to tell and exemplify God’s love for every human being. Bishops, priests and deacons cooperate as leaders at all levels of our church. Leadership is a gift from God and can be expressed by all people in our church, regardless of their identity or sexual orientation.
Read about The Rainbow Initiative, which is Episcopal Migration Ministries’ response to General Convention 2022 Resolution D045 “On Supporting LGBTIQ+ Refugees and Asylum Seekers”. Their goals for the Rainbow Initiative include: working with Episcopal congregations and others to bring visibility and aid to LGBTQ+ forced migrants, and reviewing and revising EMM materials and procedures in order to ensure that they are fully inclusive of LGBTQ+ forced migrants.
