Preaching in the Presence of the LGBTQ Community: A Consultation

Old St. Patrick’s Church Gay+ invites you to an evening of  consultation and dialogue led by Fr. Ed Foley.

Award winning author and celebrated preacher Fr. Ed Foley is in the process of writing a book [his 29th] on preaching.  An underlying theme of the book, directed largely at Roman Catholic Clergy, is "paying attention."  One chapter, currently in draft form, focuses on paying attention in preaching to the wide array of folk who may be present for such preaching.  Along with a discussion of paying attention to the intergenerational nature of our assemblies, cross-cultural and inter-racial preaching, and male clergy preaching to women, there is a specific section on preaching to the LGBTQ community.  

This gathering, designed as a consultation, will begin with Fr. Ed's presentation of this section 
of the chapter, and then an open discussion on its content. Commendations and recommendations are both welcomed and encouraged in this dialogue.

Sunday, March 29 | 6:15 -7:45 pm 
625 W. Adams St. - 2nd floor Community Room
(Entry is from Desplaines Street)

This program is presented free of charge. Refreshments and snacks will be served. But please help us offer our best hospitality by registering.
