We faithfully walked the Stations of the Cross together during Holy Week but did you know that there are Stations of the Resurrection too? In walking the Stations of the Resurrection we are proclaiming that Resurrection happens not only at Easter but many times along our spiritual journeys. By naming them The Queer Stations of the Resurrection we are reclaiming the spiritual lessons that are at each station not only for our LGBT community but for all people who live along the margins of society.

Make a commitment to “try on” some new ideas during the season of Easter so that together we can explore what these queer stations have to teach us today.
