LGBT+ Catholics in the Diocese of Hexham and Newcastle
Welcome to our website
As members of the Body of Christ we seek to encourage one another both in faith and in acceptance of who we are. In our diversity we celebrate that we are all made in the image of God.
"God is love, and whoever remains in love remains in God and God in him."
1 Jn 4:16
Who we are and what we do
We are a support group for and run by Catholics in the Diocese of Hexham and Newcastle, who identify as LGBT+ or who are questioning their sexual or gender identity. We are part of the Vicariate of Caritas.
Friends and family members are welcome to join us.
We meet on the third Tuesday of the month at St. Andrew's RC Church in Newcastle, for a varied programme. It is also possible to connect through Zoom.
We welcome you!
You are especially invited to come along if:
- you are a LGBT+ Catholic who wants to meet other LGBT+ Catholics and share spiritual reflection, prayer, social time
- you are an LGBT+ person and you are wondering whether there is a place for you in the Catholic Church
- you are an LGBT+ ally
- it seems the right place for you.
Our next meeting will be on
Tuesday 20th Map 2025 at 7:30pm where
members of Proud Catholics will come together to vote new members of Committee and participate in decisions regarding the group.
Zoom link is available for this meeting.
