Where to livestream your worship this weekend: LGBTQIA-affirming churches, mosques and synagogues offering online services
As we all adjust to new routines in the midst of the COVID-19 crisis, Believe Out Loud is committed to finding ways for our community to continue to be connected to affirming spiritual resources.
Houses of worship have transitioned to online-only or hybrid prayer, services, and gatherings. We have gathered below links to free livestream, video, or podcast worship resources from LGBTQIA-affirming organizations.
Note: This post will continue to be updated as we gather more resources. If you have an LGBTQIA affirming spiritual community to add to this list, please write to us at [email protected]!
