Hi all, I didn't notice the updates on this thread while I was recovering from SRS. Anyone who is Orthodox or Orthodox background should take a look at the Dina List if they are looking for religious support of any kind! I grew up in a very frum Orthodox Sephardic community.

If you would like to meet anyone else who is Orthodox and LGBT, then you may want to consider coming to the Eshel Shabbaton this January. You can find more info here at http://www.eshelonline.org. It's all Orthodox or Orthodox background or wannabe's that are LGBT. Last years Shabbaton was AMAZING!!!! It was the first such Shabbaton and my wife and son and I went and had the most incredible weekend ever. Everyone there was completely non-judgmental and open. You felt very touched by the atmosphere and the people. It was the first Shabbaton of it's kind and I strongly suggest anyone who is interested to come. The offer financial aid so if you can't afford it all they can help out. People have come from all over the world for the Shabbaton and I mean ALL OVER. So even if you're not from this continent, don't give up on it!

Regards,

Hayley

It's funny I have heard That prayers are most potent at twilight or nets in the morning and Mincha right before sunset.

I don't know if it will help you, but this little fact has helped me. There is a Harreidi Rav that made a ruling on s.r.s.
