The Chapel of the Open Hearth is a queer spiritual community celebrating the rich tapestry of love and identity. Our lives have not fit into binary structures, and we don't expect God and faith journeys to fit into boxes either. Our founding leadership team is made up of trans, agender, pansexual, demisexual, poly, and monogamous folks, along with other expressions that defy easy labels.

All consensual and nurturing relationships are sacred.

All expressions of identity that honor the divine image within are beautiful.
We celebrate and revel in our Queerness.

We affirm allies, the straights, the heteros, the cisgender, and the monogamous.
If love lives in your heart, you are welcome here.

We ask that all our guests treat one another as keepers of a sacred light.
Abusive behavior will not be tolerated.

The prized spaces by our hearth are reserved for those who have been targeted and maligned by oppressive forces and systems.
We seek to be a refuge for People of Color, Immigrants regardless of status, Queer folk, Trans folks, the economically disadvantaged, those living with disabilities, and those who have been persecuted by Christian nationalists.
