When Canadian Pieter Neimeyer came out as gay in 2014, it was an isolating experience.
“There really wasn’t a lot of support from Mennonites in Canada, people or organizations to connect with for guidance,” said Niemeyer, at the time a pastor of a Mennonite congregation.
That experience has led him others in Canada to create In This Together, a support and resource group for Anabaptist/Mennonites who are part of the LGBTQ+ community in Canada.
