HERE ARE A FEW OF THE RESPONSES WE’VE RECEIVED

“I told my gay friends I hung out with some Mormons last night and they said, You what????”

“We began to open up and share our heartfelt beliefs.  We listened to one another.  I gained so much more insight into the lives and feelings of my gay friends.  I hope that someday many more people can find the peace and love that we experienced that night.”

 
“Thank you so much for inviting us to your little soiree last night.  I will never  forget how I felt as I talked to those beautiful young men.  And the next morning, thanks to our conversation, I called my cousin who had come out to the family a few months ago.  I told him I’d heard the news, that I loved him and would always be there for him.  He was moved to tears, and I was too.”

“I would never have believed that I could sit down with a group of Mormons and feel understood and even appreciated. I am feeling very hopeful.”

“I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the wonderful evening we shared last night.  All of us are Heavenly Father’s children.”

“This is how all walls will fall down—just talking, just a few people at a time.”

“I was about to say that I know something good is going to come from this. But it already has.”

“I am feeling some hope around the issue of Mormons and gays that I have not felt before.”

“Thank you for putting together such a wonderful evening on Sunday.  I found a great deal of solace from the discussion and I think everyone else seemed to find a place in the dialogue.  Sort of a miracle, really!”
