Why I Support the Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies in Religion and Ministry

Sister Jeannine Gramick National Coalition of American Nuns

As a woman religious leader whose ministry to and with lesbian and gay Catholics since 1971 has not always received the encouragement of my own religious leaders, I have felt the support the Center provides to people of all faiths.

The acceptance of John McNeill's papers as part of the Center's archives in February 2002 was a momentous tribute to all Catholics. This event convinced me the Center is making a vital contribution to our faith communities to become welcoming places for LGBT persons and their families.

Thanks for all you and the Center have done to make life more whole for LGBT persons.
