Jul 14, 2007 Quickie Link: MCC Opens Doors in Worcester
By vanrozenheim

(UK) - A Metropolitan Community Church has been set up in Worcester - the first in the city's history. The church, based at the Friends Meeting House in Sansome Place, Worcester, is for gay people to celebrate both their faith and sexuality, says the minister who will lead the services. The church has been set up by the Birmingham-based Journey Metropolitan Community Church to serve the "lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered" Christians of the two counties. Rev Chris Dowd, an Australian who came to the UK 12 years ago and who is leading the services, said: "It's appalling that there simply isn't a place where openly lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people can come to church and be accepted for who they are. For a substantial number of gay and lesbian people spirituality is very important."
