Dr. Jallen Rix to Speak at St. Aidan's, S.F. on Gay Pride
Sunday, June 27 

Speaker, author, singer and educatorJallen Rix, as a young Southern Baptist, joined an ex-gay ministry when he discovered his same-sex attractions. Although the ministry did not make him heterosexual, it did manage to destroy any sense of stability and self-esteem.

His new book, Ex-Gay No Way, is Dr. Rix’s journey through the ex-gay world and what he did in the aftermath to reintegrate positive sexuality with healthy spirituality. Further, he demonstrates that the tactics used in these oppressive environments are many of the same damaging schemes used everywhere in power-abusive religious organizations today.

Jallen will preach at both the 8 and 10 am services on June 27. St. Aidan's is located at 101 Gold Mine Drive in the Diamond Heights Neighborhood.
