Cathedral of Hope
The intent of our Affirming Church Directory™ is to provide an online resource for people to locate and visit welcoming Christian churches around the world. We list congregations that meet on a regular basis in a physical location for worship, prayer, service and fellowship. All churches in this directory have confirmed that their congregation, in some form or fashion, is an affirming. No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you're welcome here. We are people of many races, ethnic backgrounds, ages, sexual orientations and gender identities. About
