Queers4Christ

Queers4Christ is an Old Catholic / Independent Catholic community of Roman Catholics in Resistance who believe that fidelity to tradition and fidelity to one’s authentic identity are not opposites. We uphold the beauty of the Traditional Latin Mass and the richness of Catholic spirituality while affirming that LGBTQ people should never be forced to abandon tradition in order to be treated with basic human dignity. Our sacramental life is grounded in apostolic succession through the Thục and Vilatte lines, strengthened by our synodal relationships. After discerning that our former affiliation no longer reflected our mission of integrity, hospitality, and genuine Catholic tradition, we chose to separate and continue our work independently. This independence allows us to preserve the TLM while building a community where all are welcomed as equal before Christ. We believe that expressing one’s true identity does not require fleeing to a “liberal” parish or abandoning the Mass of the Ages. In our community, every person—regardless of race, gender identity, or sexual orientation—is treated as beautifully equal before Christ. Anyone may attend Mass. Anyone may be baptized. And anyone who truly has the vocation, discipline, and spiritual maturity may pursue ordination. Queers4Christ exists for those who love the TLM, love the Church, and refuse to choose between tradition and authenticity. Here, you can be fully yourself and fully Catholic.
