If You Love Discussing Catholic LGBT Issues, Come and Meet Others Like You!

This summer, there will be several opportunities for Bondings 2.0 readers to meet with Bondings 2.0 staff members and other readers in various parts of the U.S.

We’ve kicked off a series of blog meetups for readers to connect with one another and with our writers to do discuss current Catholic LGBT issues–the substance of Bondings 2.0.  The series was inaugurated with a meetup in London during mid-June, which also included Terence Weldon from the Queering The Church blog.  The event was hosted by LGBT Catholics Westminster, London’s pastoral outreach to the LGBT community.

The second meetup is scheduled for next week in the Chicago metropolitan area.  See details below.

Come and be part of a live discussion about the issues that mean so much to you!
