This is why I am in this forum. I need gay christian friends. Its as simple as that. I need people I can turn to who will understand exactly what I am feeling. I do not want to abandon my faith. I do not even want to abandon my church. I am sure there are others out there in Melbourne who would be keen on forming a social group. A group to provide support and encouragement, so that we (or rather I) do not have to lead a marginalised life in our churches.

Hello chrétien! We are happy to have you here. I just wanted to say if you are Melbourne, be assured that there is no shortage of gay Christians in the area who would be happy to be there for you. I am sure the F2b members there in Melbourne can help you out. So fear not, chrétien, I am sure your need for community and a safe place will be fulfilled very soon.

Thanks Chris , very thankful that I found freedom2be. I will definely check out the Melbourne F2B gathering at VAC.

Welcome chretien!

There’s a few of us Melbourne types here. It’s good to have you along for the journey.

hi,

As a melbourne anglican i am heart broken to hear your story, but seriously uplifted by your strength, i don’t know i could be a gracious as you are in your circumstances.

There is a gay anglican melbourne community, but it is still largely underground as the church is currently being rocking by these issues and sexuality will be one of the key issues raised at synod this year (although knowing the church progress is not necessarily an outcomes! But some conversation is better than none!)

I pray that God is with you in all you do, and that you find a community within the anglican church in which you feel comfortable and able to express yourself.

If you ever want some conversation message me

Blessings
