Broad View United goes beyond seeing the Affirming Ministry as just a statement. We’re dedicating time to create a safe space within Broad View United for Two Spirit and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer people, and allies. We aspire to build and transform our community and to engage further in meaningful activities in solidarity with Two Spirit and LGBTQ+ Christians, queer people of faith, and newcomers in the region. With this hope, we’re introducing new programs for 2023-24. Whether these are new activities or groups under a year old, we invite First Met community members to join us!
The BVU Affirm Team will commemorate the Transgender Day of Remembrance with a candle-lighting vigil during Sunday worship on November 19th. We invite you to join this service to mourn and reflect on the ongoing violence against transgender individuals. If you have lost loved one(s) due to prejudice, rejection, hatred, and violence towards the transgender community, let us come together to light candles, honouring the luminous lives and contributions of transgender individuals.
