Called OUT of the Closet Towards Faith

Called OUT of the Closet Towards Faith

Service Title: Called OUT of the Closet Towards Faith by Roddy Biggs  Service Description We are called to something; for some, this calling might be one of vocation, such as a new job opportunity, and for others, it might be one to come OUT of the closet as they embrace their true and authentic identity as a member of the LGBTQ community. Still, for others, they might be called towards faith as they seek the truth in the love of a religious community. Whatever you are called OUT to, join us as we learn about and celebrate what it means to be “Called OUT of the Closets Towards Faith. “

A conversation with lifelong UU Peter Bowden turned digital faith leader.  Peter's approach spread like wildfire as he grew in outreach and ministry.   While media tends to be a hot topic and important to him, at the heart of Peter's digital ministry work and leadership is always relationship and community building. Of course, social media and building relationships are now connected!
