The BCA CBE is honored to participate with the support of the Bishop and several ministers.

Did you know that one in three LGBTQ+ youth identify with a religion? Sadly, many of them are pressured to choose between their faith and the freedom to live and love authentically. Today, we celebrate all q***r youth of faith, and we proclaim the human right to believe, to belong and to be loved.
