Remember Our Homeless LGBT Youth This Holiday Season

The Advocate/By Reverend Irene Monroe December 25 2015 4:00 AM EST

"The holiday season is a difficult time of year for many.

Too often we see the commercialism that this holiday brings, totally missing its spiritual message.The underlying message in celebrating the season is the full embrace of human difference and diversity.

I truly believe if Americans — Christians and non-Christians, alike — stayed more focused on the message and teachings of this holiday season, many LGBT youth and young adults would not have the annual angst of searching for home for the holidays."
