by Seba Martinez November 2006 Affirmation: Gay and Lesbian Mormons is featured in Homosexuality and Religion: An Encyclopedia (Greenwood Press, 2007). According to the 550-word article, “Affirmation's chief function has been to create a sense of community among gay Mormons, who often experience isolation as they struggle to make sense of their sexuality and are likely to have weakened ties to their families and congregations. Community is created through local social gatherings, an annual conference, and increasingly via the Internet.” The encyclopedia also contains an article on Mormonism and another one on the Restoration Church of Jesus Christ. |
