Guest Carol Olewine (she/her) with the Santee United Methodist Church
Carol Olewine (she/her) is a member of Santee United Methodist Church, and a queer person of faith. Santee United Methodist Church is the only LGBTQ+ affirming church in Santee, and is the host of the annual Santee Pride Festival and Pride Walk. Where churches and Christians in this country have far too often become more insular and less accepting in recent decades, we talk about the ways faith and sexuality intersect, and how faith communities can rise to become sanctuaries for the LGBTQ+ community as well as other marginalized groups.
