KinNet Electronic Chapter

What is KinNet?

KinNet is Seventh-day Adventist Kinship International's (Kinship) electronic online (web-based) discussion forum for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender and their friends who are current or former members of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Messages are available on-line and are private in the sense that they may only be accessed by KinNet members. Only KinNet members may participate in this group.

Purposes of KinNet
1) To encourage contact between SDA Kinship members worldwide and to foster a spirit of "kinship" and social interaction via electronic mail for members not able to attend local Kinship functions.

2) To supply information on what is happening with Seventh-day Adventist Kinship. We can handle requests for literature pertaining to gay aspects of life and interaction with the Seventh-day Adventist Church.

3) To discuss practical issues of relevance to the Adventist Kinship subculture and the world in general.

4) Announcements of gatherings and conferences of interest to the Christian Gay community.

5) To discuss issues in human relations.
How to become a member of KinNet?
