Andre Afamasaga: Every good gift

Join Dan and Jo as they introduce you to Andre - a former pastor who came out publicly via an article in the Sydney Morning Herald during the aftermath of the Israel Folau saga. The article went viral and went on to be shared and published internationally.

As someone who was a minister for the Seventh-day Adventist Church, Andre has had quite a journey with accepting his sexuality and what this has meant for his position as a pastor.

Since transitioning from the pulpit to now working for the human rights commission, Andre has been a light and a respected voice for the LGBTQI+ community and we are so blessed to be able to share some of his story with you.

Born and raised in the church, Jo never expected to find himself being pushed out by it. While Jo’s journey of self acceptance and a search for belonging has been challenging, it led him to find a loving God who was far greater than the sum of his painful experiences and hurt and a return to the church of his childhood. He hopes that all will be able to experience, as he has, a love that not only transforms them but also changes the way they see others.
