Faith & Spirituality

The Matthew Shepard Foundation in conjunction with MatthewsPlace.com shares in the mission to change the conversation about gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people of faith. Because of the pioneering efforts of brave religious people speaking out for equality, a new movement for change is emerging that embraces a culture of welcome, compassion, and hospitality; values we believe are at the heart of all our faith traditions. Below are resources of Faith & Spirituality, that we hope will help you in living a healthy, productive, hate-free life.
