A Gift to Queer Catholics of All Ages!
This podcast is an absolute delight and a true gift to everyone who longs for a Catholic church that celebrates LGBTQ people and their love! It is lighthearted and entertaining while conveying lifesaving messages of hope and belonging for young people who face rejection. How many Catholic youth out there think they’re somehow defective for their queer identity? I wish every young person raised in the church could hear this story!
