LGBTQ Spiritual Support Group

The LGBTQIA+ experience is at times challenging. It can be even more difficult when religious and spiritual institutions tell us we need to change. This is a support group designed to support each other spiritually with some of the most difficult questions to navigate in our pursuit of spirit and fullness of self. This is a SAFE PLACE to be real and support each other. 

This group is facilitated by Joanna Whaley, a former evangelical pastor, who was fired from her job for coming out at a trans woman. You are safe here!

CHELSEA, MI - Parables Worship Service

Parables is a worship service for all abilities, particularly designed for those on the wider spectrum of neurodiversity and/or body diversity, or what has been sometimes termed “special needs” – though every need is simply a human one. Parables believe that the most “special need” they all have is to have a place we know we belong – where people genuinely see us and value who we are in all our uniqueness.  Parables invites active, informal participation from those in attendance and is often called the “No Shushing Zone.”  The Parable worship service meets in the Social Hall.
