Thomas More Center for Catholic Thought and Culture Conversations Series: Catholic Ministries to the LGBTQ+ Community
Following the example of Jesus in extending himself to the most marginalized of his day, Catholics, both ordained and lay, have organized ministries to the LGBTQ+ community. Join Sister Jeannine Gramick, of New Ways Ministry, an organization seeking dialogue and reconciliation in advocating for the LGBTQ+ community; Father James Martin, S.J., of Outreach, a ministry of the Society of Jesus (attending via Zoom); and Jason Steidl Jack, Assistant Teaching Professor of Religious Studies at St. Joseph’s University in New York and author of "LGBTQ Catholic Ministry: Past and Present," in a discussion of efforts to heed the call of the church to treat LGBTQ+ people with “respect, compassion, and sensitivity” (Catechism #2358.).
