Seventh-day Adventist Kinship International (Kinship) is a diverse, multigenerational worldwide community of individuals who are connected to the Adventist community.
SDA Kinship is the only organization for current or former Adventists who identify as LGBTIQ+. Kinship is not a change-oriented ministry. Our mission is to create a safe community for those who find us. For some, this is an online community; for others, it is a face-to-face community. Much of this depends on the location of the member and how many other members are in their vicinity. Some members still attend Adventist churches and others have moved on in different directions.
Kinship isn't here to be a moral or religious belief police. We encourage everyone to have an individual and personal relationship with their God. It is also part of our mission to educate church leaders (pastors, teachers, and administrators, etc) to understand our community better and to learn how to create a safe space for us.
