Certificate in LGBTQ Ministry
CenterPeace's 9-month certificate training program equips pastors and other Christian leaders who are working to fully integrate LGBTQ people into the life of the Church. The Certificate in LGBTQ Ministry provides crucial insight and practical tools for nurturing the faith and spiritual gifts of sexual and gender minorities.
​
What we can offer you
The CenterPeace Certificate in LGBTQ Ministry will give you the top-notch training and resources you need to help your congregation become a church where sexual and gender minorities thrive. Studies show the percentage of young people attending church is rapidly dropping. One factor in this trend is the Church's inadequate response to LGBTQ people. Not only is the Church losing sexual and gender minorities, but also their friends and family who support them. You can make a difference.

Explore Resources
Knowing the right resources will equip you, while also giving you tools for equipping others, whether it be a recommended book, video, or podcast. In this program you will explore a wealth of resources you need for LGBTQ ministry.
