LGBTQIA+ Clergy and Ministry Leaders Luncheon
LGBTQIA+ clergy and ministry leaders carry something remarkable: the call to serve, preach, lead, and pastor — often in the face of rejection, exclusion, and harm from the very institutions that helped shape them.
LOVEboldly’s LGBTQIA+ Clergy Appreciation Luncheon creates space to honor these leaders for exactly who they are and for the sacred work they continue to do in communities across Ohio.
On October 10, 2026, LGBTQIA+ clergy and ministry leaders will gather for an afternoon of connection, appreciation, and celebration. Together, we’ll recognize their courage, faithfulness, leadership, and the communities they have built, strengthened, and sustained.
This luncheon is an opportunity to be seen, supported, and celebrated among peers who understand both the joys and challenges of LGBTQIA+ ministry leadership.
