One thing we can say for sure: MORs occur in every faith and religious denomination. OurPath has supported people from Christian, Mormon, Jewish, Muslim and other religious backgrounds. Although many churches and temples are now “open and affirming” of LGBT+ people, many religious traditions still hold that homosexuality or being transgender is “wrong” or “immoral.” If you are part of a faith that teaches this, it can be hard to reconcile that you are, or were, partnered with an LGBT+ person. Many Straight Partners and Partners of Trans People have crises of faith. Some people leave their churches, communities or denominations, which can add to a sense of grief over lost community. Some SP and PTP question, but ultimately recommit to their faith. Although as an organization we affirm LGBT+ people and other sexual minorities as part of the normal, healthy expression of diverse human sexuality, OurPath supports each SP or PTP on their own faith journey.
