Class Description

A reflective group for LGBTQIA+ individuals and affirming allies

**This class is donation-based. Your presence is more than enough- contribute if and what you can.**

Open to LGBTQIA+ folks and affirming allies over 18

Queer & Beloved is a twice-monthly soul companionship circle for LGBTQIA+ individuals and trusted allies who are navigating spiritual questions, healing from religious harm, or simply seeking a safe space to reflect and reconnect with what is sacred.

Led by Mandi Slagle, a certified spiritual director (and Saint Matt’s staff member!), this group offers a gentle rhythm of guided prompts, shared silence, reflective listening, and blessing. It’s not therapy or religious instruction—it’s a space of presence, healing, and deep belonging.

Together, we honor each person’s story without judgment or pressure to fix, change, or explain. Whether you’re deconstructing your faith, rebuilding a sense of self, or just needing a space to breathe and be, you are welcome here.
