It wasn’t many years ago that courageous students and faculty fought the hard battle of opening the doors of their schools to Gay/Straight Alliances (GSA’s).  Now they are present in most area high schools.  A panel of members of Gay/Straight Alliances from area high schools will share about their experiences of participating in GSA’s.  They’ll also share about their experiences as a gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, questioning student or as a straight ally.  There will be plenty of time for questions and conversation. 

Rev. Roger Bertschausen is the Senior Minister at FVUUF and has served the congregation for over 18 years.  He is a very popular retreat and class leader.
