The Charlotte Pride Interfaith Directory is inspired by the national work of Church Clarity. We share Church Clarity’s conviction that faith institutions should clearly communicate their beliefs, practices, and policies. “Many churches fail to disclose their actively enforced policies,” Church Clarity states. “Ambiguity enables those with power to operate without accountability and case real harm.” Learn more about Church Clarity at churchclarity.org. While similar in many respects to Church Clarity’s online database, this Charlotte Pride Interfaith Directory differs in several key ways. First, it is entirely focused on our local and regional community. Second, our directory will include faith congregations of all faith traditions, not just those from the Christian tradition. Third, while Church Clarity also lists and discloses the practices of non-affirming institutions, this Charlotte Pride Interfaith Directory will only list those who meet certain criteria. To be listed in the directory, organizations must voluntarily choose to submit their listing. Additionally, organizations must meet four key criteria:
- Accept openly LGBTQ members
- Allow openly LGBTQ members and women to take leadership roles
- Ordain openly LGBTQ people and women
- Perform same-gender marriages
Two additional criteria are asked of each organization: Do they have an LGBTQ affinity or study group and do they financially support and/or participate in LGBTQ-affirming causes, organizations, or events. The directory also asks each faith institution to disclose its faith tradition, denomination, or affiliation. The following list of faith resources is compiled from those organizations which have already opted to voluntarily submit themselves to this directory.
