Transgender people encouraged to become priests in Church of England diversity drive

The guidance, titled “welcoming and honouring LGBT+ people”, warns that the church’s reputation as being unwelcoming towards gay and transgender people is stopping young people attending. [ Source: UK Telegraph (Read More…) ]
