Our Mission

The Online Faith Collective started in response to the global pandemic and the requirements of social distancing that has kept people from attending worship services.

Some individuals who now need to spend more time at home are looking for community and for inspiration and comfort, regardless of whether they often attend worship services.

Some faith communities are seeing that their online worship services are a gift to non members, and a way to make new friends and expand their ministry.

That’s why we started! We hope that you will share your LGBTQ+ friendly online worship service of any faith for the benefit of our beautiful world. We all need a little more connection, love, and hope.

If you would like to be connected to one of our volunteer pastors (or volunteer) please see our companion program, the Virtual Pastors Network.

Please be patient as we work to respond to demand - and if you wish to help, partner, share ideas - please be in touch!

Thank you.
