Rev. Dr. Joseph Shore-Goss leads Faith United Church of Christ, an LGBTQ+-inclusive church in conservative very-red Bradenton, Florida. The church’s slogan proudly says, “Jesus didn’t reject people. Neither do we.” A trained pastor and chaplain, Shore-Goss specializes in American Sign Language and hospice work. He says, “We offer authentic faith and promise to walk with you.” Celebrating his first Pride in small-town Florida, Shore-Goss told LGBTQ Nation, “We are creating a refuge for all who seek family and welcome!” #Queer Up Religion
