Wheaton College Alumni Support Gay Students

The Huffington Post reported via Religion News Service on OneWheaton, an organization comprised of gay and supportive alumni of Wheaton College. 

OneWheaton was formed following a recent chapel series at the college on "Sexuality and Wholeness," in which a speaker supported gay celibacy.

The organization writes on its website, "The recent chapel message on Sexuality and Wholeness and surrounding conversations may have left some of you feeling alienated, ashamed and afraid. It can be difficult to see the danger of messages about sexuality and emphasize 'God's compassion for the broken,' but as a group of LGBTQ Wheaton alumni and allies, we've seen the devastating effects these words have had on ourselves and our loved ones."

It goes on, "If you are a student and this is part of your story, your sexual identity is not a tragic sign of the sinful nature of the world. You are not tragic."
