For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving (1Timothy 4:4)
Welcome! We're glad you're here.
In 2015, a group of students, pastors, and community members from various church backgrounds sat down together at Penn State and discussed the need for a space uniquely for LGBTQ and allied Christians to worship together. Out of these discussions came the idea for a this group. Our format is simple: one worship service a month, one bible study evening a month, and periodic community event/service opportunities. We hope this will be a place to grow together, to learn from one another, to understand God through the eyes of others and to open eyes ourselves and within the community around us. We believe our lives are gifts from God, that we are fearfully and wonderfully made, and that we believe in a God of whom we are not ashamed.
We are excited about the new year at Penn State! For more details, and information about past events, see here.

In 2016 we lost Eli Roe, our friend and founding member. Eli was passionate about creating spaces that welcomed all people - regardless of their gender and sexual identity - to this Christian space at Penn State. This organization hopes to continue to live on, working at realizing Eli's dreams for a safer Penn State Christian community.
