Welcome to the Lesbian & Gay Christian Movement

All the world's major religions are faced with having to come to terms with a modern understanding of homosexuality. The place of gay and lesbian people in the life of the Church is currently Christianity's most divisive issue. Confronting homophobia is its greatest challenge. The Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement is proclaiming a basic Christian truth. It is working for the very love and freedom that Christ brings to his people through his life, death and resurrection. LGCM is working for love, for peace, for justice, and for the promotion of the Christian faith especially within the LGBT community.

  3. Marriage Equality

    18 January 2012

    The government has announced that they will be conducting a consultation in March on how to best implement civil marriage for same-sex couples following their commitment to legalise marriage. However, there are some Tories in the Coalition Government who are revolting against this and will vote to stop it from going ahead.

    Now is the time to write to your local mp and ask them how they intend to vote and tell them why it is important to vote in favour of same-sex marriage.

    Points you can make:

    • In keeping with Equality Act 2010
    • Further reduces inequality in the law
    • Reduces discrimination and hate crime towards LGBT community by enhancing acceptance of same-sex relationships
    • Promotes marriage and stable relationships which is good for society in general
