Pope Francis met with and told Gay Man(2018):
"That you are gay does not matter.
God made you like that and
loves you like this and
I don’t care.
The Pope loves you like this.
YOU HAVE TO BE HAPPY WITH WHO YOU ARE."”

About:
The Gay Catholics Christians mobile app was developed and created by a team of volunteers from NYC's "CatholiX: Gay Catholics, Christians & Friends" Social Group. The group started as a small "After Sunday Night Mass" meetup group to connect, dine and discuss how that Sunday's homily or recent LGBTQ news applied and impacted our lives as Gay Catholics and Christians.
The small group grew a bit, and today we are one of the largest Gay Catholics & Christians social groups in the nation. We come from all over the Tri-State area (NY, NJ, & CT); we are Lesbians, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer Catholics and Christians of all ages and many different nationalities, and we are all at different stages of our spiritual search.
The app is dedicated to Pope Francis, who through his words and questions, has inspired many LGBTQ believers to stay or come back to the table: An Open Table that our Lord Jesus Christ set for ALL of his Children, but a table that a few have tried for a very long time to keep closed to us and our LGBTQ Catholic Families.
