Our Welcome

Statement

You, in your fullness, are beloved by God.

The Collective is a Reconciling in Christ community and committed to being a space of welcome and affirmation for our LGBTQIA+ siblings.

The Collective’s Welcome Statement

At the Collective, we seek to do more than just welcome you. We seek to be a community which radically affirms your identity and your personhood. We seek to stand in solidarity with you, especially if you have been told that God’s love is not for someone like you. The Collective welcomes people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions. We also commit ourselves to the hard work of anti-racism and economic justice. We are committed to listening and learning and dismantling barriers to Christ’s love. We do this work because we believe that Jesus calls us to tear down all of the artificial barriers which keep us from experiencing the transformative love of God. Christ’s love and Christ’s grace is for you! 

StoryGroups

The Collective has small groups (called StoryGroups) across Metro Atlanta and would love to form more in your area. StoryGroups are places to make new friendships, talk about life, and wrestle with the mysteries of faith. They are places for laughter, reflection, and deepening your connection with God.
