Mentoring & spiritually nurturing the next generation of Christian LGBTQ Leaders.
Are you an LGBTQ Christian in your 20s or 30s ready to use your gifts for God?
What Is Bakos Project?
Bakos Project is a theologically orthodox and affirming initiative that nurtures the faith and vocational aspirations of LGBTQ Christians in their 20s and 30s who demonstrate both a commitment to Christ and leadership qualities.
Through mentoring and spiritual edification, Bakos Project encourages LGBTQ Christians to use their God-given gifts in their communities. Whether pursuing formal ministry roles or serving in the public sector, LGBTQ Christians can be a positive witness and example of Christ-like service in our world.
Bakos is the name of the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8:26-40, as given by Ethiopian Christians to this day. As a eunuch, Bakos, was a sexual minority previously banned from the Temple, but now sent out by God as an evangelist.
