\u0027If you’re just looking for acceptance, that’s not much of a goal. But celebration is a goal that has some life to it,\u0027 said one minister.
Nora Vedress has vivid memories of being a teenager in 1988, when the United Church of Canada was debating ‘the issue:’ Could gay and lesbian people be ordained?
But in the face of that resistance, Vedress said something extraordinary happened — the church community in Prince Albert stepped up with full-throated support. Building safe and supportive places for kids to grow up, where they will be able to explore and become their full selves, has been a priority for many churches throughout the province.
When Sarauer’s own child came out, she started to notice even more ways that “this could be a safer space, if we were intentional about it.”
