Ep 131 David P shares his Experience, Strength & Hope

Join us in this episode as past guest of a few group chat episodes, David P, shares in more detail in our one-on-one conversation. We explore what it was like to come out as gay man in the rooms of SAA after the death of his wife; working in ministry for most of his life as well as being a survivor of sexual abuse at the hands of the clergy; and finally giving back through Service in the Noon Zoom meetings.
