a supportive community of LGBTQ+ spiritual seekers* to journey alongside you as you rediscover a faith that fits
* and some rad straight, cisgender folks, too
How would it feel to have a community of people from around the world who accept you just as you are—no compromise, no hiding?
How would it feel to have resources, inspiration, and encouragement as you uncover and explore how your queerness and your spirituality compliment one another?
Make friends from all over the world, get answers to your questions, transform your faith and your life.
Whether you're just coming out or whether you've been out forever, Sanctuary Collective has a place for you. Questions and doubts welcome.
Come as you are. Really.
We’re mostly Christians and former Christians, but there are also some Jews, Buddhists, pagans, and witches.
We are a mix of confidently religious, seekers, doubters, spiritual-but-religious, and religious-but-not-spiritual.
Some of us are searching for something else entirely.
If you’re looking for a place to dip-your-toe back into the waters of faith and spirituality, in a place where “queerness is holy” is at the heart center, this community is for you. We take our responsibility as facilitators of this space seriously. It’s actively moderated and all members agree to community agreements.
We’re happy to hear that a member once said: “this is the most well run and drama-free LGBTQ online religious community I’ve ever been part of.”
Sanctuary Collective has been a place where I can explore deeply without ever having to apologize for my either my queerness or my Christianity or even for my doubts. My whole self is welcome.

As I explored my transition from female to male, I grew distant from my faith. I came to Sanctuary Collective after I transitioned to regain that connection between spirituality and my transness.
