Living Statement of Affirmation of LGBTQ2SIA+ Persons

This statement was adopted by Our Saviour's Lutheran Membership on January 31, 2021

At Our Saviour's Lutheran Church, we are an ELCIC congregation of diverse sexual orientations, gender identities, gender expressions, ethnicities, ages, beliefs, histories and experiences. We live in God's unconditional love and grace, and believe this gift is for all.

We believe we are all called to fully live out God's purpose as we have been created. Through our experience of God's love we are called to learn and grow, creating a spiritual home in our community for LGBTQ2SIA+ people and families to be who we are.

We welcome people wherever they are on their spiritual journey. We seek an expansive understanding of a loving God. Through curiosity, critical thinking and contemplative practices, God opens us to infinite possibilities for dynamic connection, growth, and wholeness in Christ.

This is a living covenant that will continue to evolve as our understanding grows.

What Participants Say

" I came into fruit combo summer 2021 after hearing from word of mouth looking for community when i need it the most. What I found was a non judgemental and friendly environment, as well as lifelong friends, laughter, and some of my best memories in 2021. I look forward to making more memories, and having more meaningful moments in 2022! "

Our Story So Far

#MYRAINBOWHEART

#MYRAINBOWHEART

The Our Saviours rainbow heart is a testament of our support and ally ship with the LGBTQIA2S+ community.

The Pride Mural

In summer 2021, we set out on a mission. One of visibility and inclusion for those who identify as LGBTQIA2S+ in our church. Over the creation of the mural we have been blessed to work with different local artists and queer youth to create a beacon of hope and inclusion right here in Prince George. It is as important as ever for LGBTQIA2SIA+ individuals to have a safe space and to know that they are seen, loved, and valid- which was our aim in this project. A sense of care and belonging, belongs not to one, but to all.
