Advisory Commission
The LGBTQ+ Pastoral Affairs Commission is made up of a diverse group of clergy and lay leaders whose important insights and experiences help guide the archdiocese’s pastoral accompaniment of the LGBTQ+ community.
Our Goals
- Listen to and better understand the experiences of LGBTQ+ Catholics in our parishes, schools and communities.
- Learn the pastoral needs of the LGBTQ+ Catholic community.
- Work with clergy to understand their needs in accompanying this community with a compassionate and coherent pastoral model.
- Discern what ministerial resources are most beneficial and reflective of the archbishop’s pastoral vision for accompanying the LGBTQ+ community, ministers and families.
