ed. [** Photo was delayed for publishing ** orig date Dec 18th, '23 ] This is something I've been wanting to do for some time. I belong to the United Church of Canada and they were the first or one of the first accept gay and lesbians, as well as trans individuals into the church. Their take on it is if this who you truly are then you are not being honest to yourself and others by pretending otherwise. The minister (who is gay) at our former church was one of the first people I told about this side of me which was about 5 years ago now. He was completely accepting and supportive which so nice, especially at that point in my femme journey. I should add that I'm not a highly religious person but do like to go to church from time to time. Likewise they expect you to be sincere, which had been part of my problem because like so many others here I wonder who and what I am at times. Over the last couple of years I've come to accept that I'm closer to the trans side as I didn't want to go in as Amy and not be sincere about myself, but this is a real part of who I am whether or not I decide to go full time at some point in the future. Then a very good fully trans friend talked to me about going to her church in Dundas Ont., which is about an hour's drive from my home. Closer enough to get there, but also not too close to home. One Sunday she {my trans friend} decided to go there and they welcomed her with open arms and she is now part of the choir group and also on a church board as well. That's another part of the balance I need to make. I'm still married and my wife is hugely supportive of my dressing, but doesn't want too many to know about it so there's no way I can go to a local church. My wife was still a bit reticent but we wanted to go to church as we hadn't been in some time and with it nearing Christmas we really wanted to. So we got up a bit early, I dressed and did makeup then made the drive. We were welcomed warmly and quite a number of people who also took time to introduce themselves, and my friend also introduced us to people there too. All in all a very successful time and another hurdle crossed! I only had this pic taken in the entrance way, I thought it would be tacky to be taking a bunch of selfies in the church.

    I'm a long time crossdresser, as are so many others, and I've been a member of CDH for quite a few years now. Though I'm not full time femme, I do feel I'm sliding towards being femme more and more. Honestly I don't know if I really belong here or not, but I thought I'd join.
