Kenya LGBTQ+ : I’m black, I'm gay, I'm a priest

John, a priest ordained in a mainstream church, remembers struggling all his life to reconcile his sexual orientation with his calling to be a church minister.

Facing homophobia after being outed in church, he started searching for queer affirming theology and spaces within Christian communities.

He shares his story on how finding a queer-affirming church in Kenya changed his life and his calling to priesthood.
