Prism Sanctuary (PS) is an organization that describes itself as an LGBTQIA+ focused religion. They do not worship a deity. They celebrate the love of one’s true self and identity as a human being. This Sunday, our featured speaker will be Dr. Sam Costa, Ph.D., secretary on the board of PS, to tell us more.
Here’s a link to Dr. Sam Costa’s blog:
