Thank your for your commitment & generosity

Your donation to St. Mary of Grace Parish helps build an inclusive community in the Catholic tradition and spread the message of God's love. Thank you! 
Over the years, our community at St. Mary of Grace Parish has:
  • baptized the children of LGBT parents whose home parishes refused them baptism,
  • married same-sex couples recognizing that their relationships are more than a blessing--they are sacrament--sign and symbol of God's grace and love in the world,
  • provided financial assistance to congregations of various faith communities that have been the target of hate crimes,
  • married opposite-sex couples who were looking of an inclusive community that would welcome their whole family regardless of denomination or sexual orientation,
  • helped organize the first catholic Mass at the Philadelphia TransHealth Conference,
  • talked to LGBT students and youth to let them know that it is possible to be faithful Catholic Christian and LGBT,
  • offered anointing of the sick to those who found it difficult to approach more conservative clergy,
  • hosted tables at Outfest and Equality Forum,
  • welcomed families from different Christian denominations so all could receive communion together during Sunday Mass,
  • provided a supportive community where LGBT parents or those with LGBT family members can raise their children to grow in the Catholic faith.
