November 2010 Dateline

Vision of a new church, as expounded by Executive Director Marianne Duddy-Burke during the October 1-3, 2010 DignityUSA Board Meeting and Leadership Summit:

  • A church that welcomes LGBT people to its pews, women to its pulpits, and accountability of its papacy

  • Parents who celebrate their child's coming out in the way a baptism or confirmation is celebrated

  • Freedom from fear of retribution in our churches

  • Freedom from suppressing our God-given sexuality

  • Freedom not only to be proud to be gay, but proud to be Catholic!
