Feel like you're the only one in the world who has a homosexual parent? You're not! Although no conclusive studies have been able to show just how many of us there are, many predict the number to reach the thousands! That's right; there are others who can understand you. They have suffered the sting of "queer" jokes and felt similar frustration when people, after hearing of a parents' homosexuality, too quickly offer canned advice or congratulations without ever bothering to ask how you feel.

They struggle with the same questions and fears as you: Is it okay to feel hurt and confused about my parents' homosexuality? How can I reconcile my faith in God with my parents' homosexuality? Can I assert my beliefs without being self-righteous? How can I offer support to my parent who is suffering with HIV/AIDS, while at the same time trying to deal with the pain of losing him/her? I am angry with God; is it okay to question Him?

If you've ever asked these questions, I encourage you to read on. The links at the right have thoughtful responses to some of your difficult questions. Through this web site, we hope to offer encouragement through personal stories, answers to your toughest questions, and, ultimately, through the love of Jesus Christ. His is a rich love that crosses all boundaries. He intends for you to find victory over your confusion and true joy in the midst of hardship.

A loving Child,
