Communion Service to honour Transgender Day of Remembrance (online & in person)

  • St Bride's Liverpool Percy Street Liverpool L8 2UL UK (map)

You are invited Sunday, 19th November for a special service in honour of Transgender Day of Remembrance.

Each November Open Table Liverpool dedicates its monthly communion service to Transgender Day of Remembrance (TdoR). This is a day when people all over the world remember those who have been killed as a result of transphobia. This is always a special service. Come along and join your voice and prayers with ours remembering those who have died and recommitting ourselves to building a world where all can be free of violence and to live authentic lives.

The service will be led by the Revd Dr Alex Clare-Young. Alex is a URC minister, author, co-chair of the Open Table Network, a trustee of Inclusive Church and a consultant for One Body One Faith and member of Creating Sanctuary. As always EVERYONE is '#morethanwelcome - bring a friend. #ComeAsYouAre.

Everyone is welcome at Open Table. Open Table is an LGBTQIA+ affirming Christian community which aims to create a safe and supportive place for you to explore your faith and what this might mean for your own spiritual journey. No matter who you are, where you've come from, or where your journey may take you, you will find a welcome.

Otherwise, feel free to continue to tune in on zoom. I, Warren, will be on zoom to welcome you (see below for joining details.)

We look forward to welcoming you either in person or on zoom!
