What is EPA?
The Episcopal Pride Alliance is a ministry of St. Wilfrid of York dedicated to offering LGBTQIA+ people, their families, ,friends, and allies unconditional welcome, belonging, and dignity.
Rooted in Christ’s love, EPA creates opportunities for people to gather, learn, worship, serve, and build community. We also engage social justice issues through education, the arts, advocacy, and meaningful partnerships.
EPA is a place who feel at home in the Church, people who are still searching, and people who may have wondered whether there is a place for them in a faith community.
