Queer Spirit

.

Queer Spirit is a Salt Lake City-based organization dedicated to serving the local community of gay men through the exploration and inquiry of queer spirituality. Jerry Buie writes:

Queer Spirit is a process of reflection of who and what we are as men loving men on many levels including and incorporating our spirituality.

Many queer men (not excluding lesbians, bi-sexual and transsexuals) have spent most of our lives marginalized by conservative politics, government policies, and most directly by religion (and often as queer men invest into the marginalized concepts of the mainstream of society).

In my observation, many queer people shun religion and spirituality because of the traumas, fears, rejection and abuses toward our identity. Queer Spirit— in the context of the Queer Spirit Retreat that we facilitate— is to go back to the roots and soul of who we are and incorporate our spirituality, in particular it is an understanding and a philosophy that is reflective of what we might find in indigenous beliefs that suggest a unique and profound place for queer people, full of potential, culture, and unique magic that is specific to our perspectives and life experiences.

The Queer Spirit web site was converted from an HTML site to a WordPress site, now stylish and modern, making it easy for Jerry & John to update themselves.

Testimonial

As the owner of PRIDE COUNSELING and QUEER SPIRIT websites, working with Robert Sink has been an absolute blessing. As a business owner and therapist I can "tell you" about my business, but Robert has the ability to listen intuitively to his clients and express through his creative genius and gifts the vision and goals of my ventures in web design format. Through his talent with images and layout he expressed for my business concepts that are poetic and appealing to my client base. About half of my referrals to Pride Counseling come from people who have reviewed my website, and Queer Spirit is a consistent base of inspiration for people in this genre. I am grateful for his professionalism and talent in getting our message out to the intended masses. — Jerry Buie
