Gay and transgender Christians are to set up an unofficial ministry for World Youth Day in Poland later this month.
Leaders of the Warsaw-based “Faith and Rainbow” LGBT organisation say they want to minister to the thousands of gay, lesbian and transgender people attending the event.
They will do this through an “LGBT Pilgrim’s Haven” in a cafe in Krakow’s Kazimierz Jewish quarter.
“We want to create a space in which they will feel safe and where they will find answers to issues facing them,” organiser Misza Czerniak said.
