Save the date: I am delighted to announce a conference for those who minister with LGBT Catholics, which will be held next summer at Fordham University in New York City (Rose Hill Campus), from June 18 to 20, 2020. 
"Outreach 2020" will bring together people engaged in ministry with LGBT Catholics--in parishes, schools and other Catholic institutions--to build community, share best practices and worship our Creator.
Keynote speakers include: Bishop John Stowe, OFM, of Lexington, Kentucky; Sr. Jeannine Gramick, SL, of New Ways Ministry; Father Bryan Massingale of Fordham; Siva Subburaman of Georgetown University; and Timothy Radcliffe, OP, former Master General of the Dominican Order.
Other speakers include Bishop Christopher Coyne; James Alison; Father Greg Greiten, Shelly Fitzgerald, Fr. William Hart McNichols, M. Shawn Copeland, Lisa Fullam, Gerard McGlone, SJ and Sister Edith Prendergast, RSC, and other ministers, theologians, writers and LGBT Catholics.
David Haas will provide the music for our liturgies.
Tentative panel topics include: Best Practices in Parishes; Best Practices in Schools; Employment in Catholic Institutions; Family Issues; Spirituality for LGBT Catholics; Theological Insights for LGBT Catholics; Race, Ethnicity and Intersectionality....
...Media Training for LGBT Ministry; and Transgender Issues; and LGBT Issues and Mental Health.
