The Gospel of Jesus Christ leads the Association to affirm and provide inclusive pastoral care with le***an and gay people and their families and friends in the Anglican communion. Changing Attitude Kenya is a group of people of all sexual orientations who support our mission. We are modeled on the example of Changing Attitude UK, now celebrating 10 years of advocacy. Changing Attitude Kenya provides speakers and resources for parishes. Changing Attitude Kenya is committed to implementing the listening process in the Kenyan Church. Changing Attitude Kenya is creating a nationwide network of members for mutual support. Changing Attitude Kenya is inspired to dispel the darkness of doubt by bringing the light of the Gospel to those on the margins of society. What do we believe?
1.The lives of LGBTI Christians show evidence of the Gifts of the Spirit.
2.Our natural sexual orientation is neither a sickness nor sinful, but given by God, not chosen apart from God’s will.
3.Loving, committed and faithful relationships are God’s ideal for
people of all sexual orientations.
4.Prejudice against gay people is no more acceptable than racism, or past justification of slavery on Biblical grounds.
5.The Church is responsible to bring the Gospel’s message of salvation especially to the most socially marginalized. Goals
•Fosters ministry with le***an, gay, bisexual, transgender and tr*******al Anglican communion, their families and friends
•Serves as a network of communication regarding Anglicans LGBT ministry
•Provides educational resources and conscience-formation materials
•Provides models of ministry and training
•Encourages the participation of le***an and gay Anglicans within the Church
•Communicates with other Anglican organizations, especially the Anglican Communion. Membership
CAK includes people involved in gay, le***an, and bi-sexual ministries, ministries to their spouses, parents, and families, and ministries to transgender and tr*******al persons. The organization also includes those who support these ministries in other ways. The Association recognizes that each ministry is a unique response to particular needs. Therefore these ministries take many different forms. They can be diocesan, parish-based or campus-based. They can reach out to gay and le***an Anglicans, or work primarily with their parents or spouses. Some ministries focus on educating the wider Anglican community about relevant issues. All these ministries share in common a desire to welcome GLBT Anglicans into the Church and to support their families and friends. Homosexuals, like everyone else, should not suffer from prejudice against their basic human rights. They have a right to respect, friendship and justice. They should have an active role in the Christian community.
