Our next Two:23 meeting will be on Saturday 7th March at Bloomsbury Central Baptist Church. when our theme will be HOPE. Society and culture have shifted dramatically in the last 30 years when it comes to gender and sexuality. We will be hearing stories and reflections from three LGBTQ Christian speakers on navigating change, embracing hope, and finding joy, love and community along the way.

​

Join us from 2pm for a 2.23pm start. However you identify, and wherever you stand on issues of faith, gender and sexuality, we hope you'll feel really welcome. And as we're so often asked it, we'll say it again - that definitely includes straight people too!

​

There's no need to book or let us know you're coming, unless you'd like to - just come along on the day. Do drop us a line if you'd like to know more by clicking here.

Two:23 only meets six times a year, but we're really pleased to have very close links to The Gathering Space, which is a supportive and friendly Facebook-based community for LGBTQ Christians run by a team including Rachel, David, Lisa-Jayne and Alex, who are also on the Two:23 Team.

​

It's a great place to keep in touch with people between meetings, or get to know some people before coming along to a meeting. It's also a secret group on Facebook, so nobody else on Facebook will be able to see that you are a member, if that would be a concern for you.

If you're aged 18-30, then do consider joining our sister organisation Diverse Church. Every year they plant a new Facebook-based community of young LGBTQ Christians.

Diverse Church Parents is a safe, welcoming Facebook-based community where parents and other family members of LGBT+ people can connect with others who are going through similar experiences.

​

It is run by regular Two:23ers Bruce and Janet Kent, and they arrange a real-life meet up at 1:00pm just before every Two:23 meeting in London.

​

Everyone is welcome regardless of where they’re at on the journey of coming to terms with having an LGBT+ relative, particularly in the context of churches that may not be affirming or inclusive.
