Hello -- My name is Stacy. My partner and I are starting an AFFIRMING Christian LBGT group in the Chicago suburbs (Aurora, Oswego, Naperville, Yorkville area). If you are from the burbs and want to join us -- please email me -- stacy@myculturalcoach.com

Here's the info on the group:

Reconciling Journey-An AFFIRMING Devotional Study for GLBT Christians.

2nd Sunday’s - 6:30-8:00 pm
Starting May 13th - Mother’s Day
Then every second Sunday of each month thereafter.

LOCATION: THE MINISTRY CABIN www.lordoflife.com
4025-A Route 34 – Oswego, IL 60543. Front Cabin across from Gas City at the corner of Route 34 & 71 and Wolf’s Crossing (95th Street). Call your facilitator, Stacy McCaskill at 630-301-2010 or email her at stacy@myculturalcoach.com for more information.

STUDY DESCRIPTION:
-Does your sexual orientation separate you from your faith in God?
-Does your faith in Jesus prevent you from accepting yourself as your creator made you?
-Are you a lesbian/gay Christian with lingering questions about your sexuality and spirituality?
-Do you hunger for a deepened spirituality?

Reconciling Journey is an affirming workbook for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered Christians who have come to a crossroads,

…those who have renounced Christianity, but would like to go home;

…those who have disavowed or hidden their sexual orientation,
but would like to come out;

… those who are both out and at home, but long to deepen
their walk with God.

Meet new friends and join together in a life-changing spiritual journey. Each chapter can be a stand-alone inquiry, so feel free to join us anytime. Transgender, Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual persons and Allies of all faiths are welcome. We strive to be a safe, welcoming, and confidential space for open & honest inquiry.

Your facilitator, Stacy McCaskill, began her reconciliation journey more than twelve years ago. Stacy's prayer is that God will empower GLBT Christians to fully embrace their identities, love themselves and others, forgive, heal, and be reconciled to their conservative friends, family, and communities. Stacy lives with her life partner of nine years in Aurora and together they attend Lord of Life Church in Oswego, Illinois. Contact Stacy at 630-301-2010 or by email at stacy@myculturalcoach.com.
