Where Community and Spirituality Collide
There’s Room is where folks come together to affirm their queerness, spirituality, and desires for collective liberation. With social clubs, spiritual services, and outreach opportunities, we’re where community and spiritual growth collide.
What we’re about
TR was started by a group of people who were tired of the traditional models of church….
What folks think of TR
…
Community Over Everything
Community is not the norm anymore. We have to be intentional. Our goal is for everyone to know what genuine community and support feels like. We are all so overworked, underloved, and overlooked. This space is for the marginalized and misfits who need it.
People Focused People
As we continue to face the challenges of income/wealth inequality, Christian nationalism, anti-Blackness, and queer-phobia, combined with an epidemic of loneliness, it is clear we need comprehensive services and spaces that can care for the entire individual that society has left behind.
Picture it! A world where nobody worries about their source of food, there is no stress over shelter, and everyone has equal rights and are respected for who they are.
Can you see it? Same, we can, too!
That’s why we’re focused on being a movement of people doing the work of compassion. We believe in planting seeds of impossibility! What others believe to be far-fetched, we aim for. Ultimately, we envision a world where people are safe and secure, have their basic needs met, and can focus on happiness and joy.
