Monday, January 14th, 2008 People of Faith Roundtable
6:30 p.m. at Hennepin Ave. United Methodist Church. 511 Groveland Ave. Minneapolis.

So…what’s with the “T” in GLBT?

Is it a drink with jam and bread?... A note to follow “la”?...something that’s thrown in the sea at a Boston Party?

 

Could your faith community unknowingly be unwelcoming…not including…actually discriminating against the “T” in your community?

Did you know that there are unique health and social justice challenges faced by this important group of people?

Want to learn more? So do we!! Faith Family Fairness will offer an engaging opportunity for people to discuss and learn more about Transgender issues and meet individuals in the community.

Work on the 2008 Lobby Day will also be on the agenda.
