Mary Lou Wallner: From the Sin of Homophobia to the Grace of Acceptance. Sunday, October 10 at 6 pmPosted by Webmaster in Christian Education, Announcements |

Mary Lou Wallner lost her lesbian Christian daughter to suicide in February of 1997. After the suicide of her daughter, Mary Lou Wallner found herself faced with a spiritual journey to try to comprehend the events of their stormy mother-daughter relationship and the implications of her refusal to accept Anna's homosexuality.
"I used to think that the only way to relate to gays was to confront them. I had no use for them. I didn't understand them, and I was judgmental and arrogant. And then one day our lives were changed forever."
Mary Lou Wallner will speak on "From the Sin of Homophobia to the Grace of Acceptance" on October 10 at 6 pm. A light meal will be provided.
