Known By Name Collective

Known By Name Collective Christ-centered. ELCA. Radically welcoming. You are known, loved, and welcome—just as you are.

Known By Name Collective affirms and celebrates the 2SLGBTQIA+ community through brave youth spaces and trauma-informed worship. Known By Name Collective is a Christ-centered community of faith within the ELCA, rooted in radical welcome and deep care for the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. We exist for those who have too often been told—by the church or by the world—that there is no place for them at the ta

ble. We believe the opposite: that every person is known by name, beloved without condition, and worthy of joy, dignity, and belonging. We serve the wider Fox Valley, from Green Bay to Oshkosh, Wisconsin, creating affirming spaces where people can gather safely and authentically. Our ministry includes youth gatherings that offer connection, mentorship, and mutual support, as well as religious-trauma-informed worship for those who have been harmed by the church but still feel a longing for faith, meaning, or community. We are committed to meeting people where they are—without pressure, judgment, or expectation of becoming someone else. Here, questions are welcome, identities are honored, names are respected, and faith is approached with care, humility, and love. Whether you are exploring faith for the first time, returning after hurt, or walking alongside someone you love, you are welcome here just as you are.

Join us tonight for our religious trauma informed worship service at 6:00 p.m. here on Facebook.

Tonight's service is one where the lectionary hits the nail a little too close to the head and we hear about Jesus walking on water and calming the storm.

Interestingly, I think all of us having collectively gone through a tornado, now see the story with vastly different eyes and perspectives. And maybe, we can understand Peter's perspective a little bit more than we did before.

Please join us for a message, prayers, and some time of reflection here on Facebook Live at 6:00 p.m.

Below is the digital bulletin for this evening's service.
