Pope Francis to LGBTQ+ Catholics: God Does Not Disown You

The second question was what he would like LGBTQ+ people to know about the church, and Francis suggested reading Acts of the Apostles, a book in the New Testament. “There they will find the image of the living church,” the pope said.The third question was on what the pope would say to LGBTQ+ people who have experienced rejection by the church.
Francis replied that any rejection was from “people in the church,” not the church itself. “The church is a mother and calls together all her children,” he wrote, recommending that LGBTQ+ people consider a biblical parable of those invited to the feast, including “the just, the sinners, the rich and the poor, etc.”Martin published the queries and responses without comment.
