(Yahoo News) Published on the Vasteras diocese’s website, in a letter titled “Personal letter to you who are trans”, the Church of Sweden insisted that the “church is also trans”.
Penned by four priests, an author and the diocese’s communications officer, the letter reads: “We are writing to you from a church that is also trans.
“A church is made up of people. People are different. We have religious teachers, employees, churchwardens, elected representatives, non-profits and other parishioners who define themselves as transgender people.
“The church thus also consists of transgender people. Therefore, the church could be described as trans.”
