Author and blogger Kittredge Cherry has spent years compiling what may be the world’s most comprehensive evergreen compendium of “traditional and alternative saints, people in the Bible, LGBTQ martyrs, theologians, authors, activists, spiritual and religious leaders, mystics, humanitarians, artists, deities and other figures of special interest to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) people of faith and allies.”
Cherry creates the profiles from the LGBTQ Saints Series at her Q Spirit / Jesus in Love Blog, where she also maintains a calendar page where they can be viewed by date according to their feast days. According to Cherry, “This list is a work in progress that will continue to grow and change.”
Thank you for this helpful resource listing queer saints and martyrs! I appreciate the links to my blog (Jesus in Love) and will use this as a guide to adding more profiles of the queer saints there.
My list of traditional and new LGBTQ saints is online at http://jesusinlove.org/saints.php.
