Furuhöjdskyrkans Församling

Terrible homofobic church

A place that talks about love – but is unable to face it.nnI wish I could write that Furuhöjdskyrkan was a sanctuary, but the truth is that it is a place where some are given space and others are silenced, reshaped or pushed out. What is preached from the stage often sounds nice: grace, openness, community. But in practice it is much the opposite. Here there is a silent culture where difference is seen as deviation. Where social control is called care, and relationships are formed with ulterior motives rather than honesty.nnThere is something uncomfortably familiar about the structure. Like a milder sibling to Knutby, without the murders, but with the same mix of charisma, control and silence.

Go to the service there as often as we can.nBeautiful congregation.

That a church that is supposed to preach love and equality spreads dangerous teaching that it is wrong/sinful to be an LGBTQ+ person is so dangerous and it actively contributes to LGBTQ+ people feeling statistically worse.

A lovely community where everyone can join in, there is always something fun to do for people of all ages!
