In honor of National Coming Out Day, we’re sharing this beautiful post from our friends at the Unitarian Universalist Association. Their message really moved us. We hope you’ll find it inspiring as well.
Today, on National Coming Out Day, we celebrate the courage, joy, and authenticity of LGBTQIA+ people who are coming out, whether for the first time, in a new space, or in new ways throughout their lives. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Coming out is not always a single moment. It can be a lifelong journey of discovering, embracing, and sharing who we are. For some, it is joyful and liberating. For others, it comes with uncertainty, vulnerability, or risk. Every journey is different, and everyone deserves the freedom to choose if, when, and how they come out.
As Unitarian Universalists, we affirm the inherent worthiness of every person and our shared responsibility to create communities where LGBTQIA+ people are not simply welcomed, but fully celebrated, supported, and loved.
To everyone coming out, wherever you are in your journey:
You are worthy of love and belonging, exactly as you are.Your identity is yours to share on your own terms.
May we continue building a world where living authentically is met with love, dignity, and safety.
